Artisan Design Team - October 2022 - Sweetest Christmas Suite Collection

Hello and welcome to my blog! Today I am sharing my October monthly showcase projects for the Stampin' Up!® Artisan Design Team! 

For this month's projects, I was asked to use products from the Stampin' Up!® 2022-2023 Mini Catalogue, the "Sweetest Christmas " Suite Collection which includes the Sweet Candy Canes Stamp Set, Candy Canes Dies, Christmas Banners Stamp Set, Christmas Banner Dies, Sweetest Christmas DSP, Real Red & White Glimmer Paper, Real Red & Garden Green Ribbon Combo Pack and Adhesive Backed Seasonal Sequins. This is such a wonderful collection and filled with so many things to make your your Christmas crafting easy. I hope that the projects I have made inspire you to create something using this lovely collection! Don't forget to visit the Stampin' Up!® Corporate Facebook Page (here) or the Stampin' Up Official Instagram page (here) to see what the other Artisan Team Members have created with this set.

'Tis The Season 

Instructions:

- Use a Sweet Sorbet card base layered with a piece of the Sweetest Christmas DSP. Die cut a piece of Basic White with the diagonal die from Candy Canes Dies. Mat the back of this piece with Vellum to tone down the DSP. 

- Stamp leaves from the Christmas Banners stamp set using Garden Green ink on Basic White and use the Christmas Banners Dies to cut. Die cut some additional pieces of branches from Basic White card using the same dies. Apply Garden Green ink with a Blending Brush to some of the die cut pieces. Use the Candy Canes Dies to die cut some of the Candy Canes from the DSP and adhere and use the Adhesive-Backed Seasonal Sequins to decorate.

- Stamp the sentiment from the Candy Canes stamp set onto Basic White using Sweet Sorbet ink and mat onto a piece of Sweet Sorbet card. Tie a bow using the Real Red Ribbon and adhere to the Candy Canes.

TIP:

- Use Vellum to tone down busy Designer Series Paper.

- Use a Blending Brush to add a soft layer of colour to die cut pieces.

Just For You

Instructions:

- Use a Stars Treat Bag and adhere a piece of the Red Glimmer Paper inside the bag to back the open stars.

- Stamp images from the Christmas Banners Set onto Basic White using Garden Green ink and die cut. Die cut the Candy Cane from the Sweetest Christmas DSP using the Candy Canes Dies. Die cut more leaf/branch pieces from Basic White and use a Blending Brush to apply Pool Party ink to these die cut pieces. Arrange all the stamped images and die cut pieces and adhere to the front to the bag.

- Stamp the sentiment from the Christmas Banners set onto Basic White using Garden Green ink. Die cut using the Christmas Banners Dies. Die cut another piece using Sweet Sorbet card and back the main banner. Tie a fancy bow using the Garden Green Ribbon and adhere to the Candy Cane and add some Adhesive-Backed Seasonal Sequins to decorate.

TIP:

- Use the elements from this collection on packaging like treat bags to spruce up your Christmas Gift Giving.

- Add a fancy bow to a project to add a special element.
