Diamond Panel Christmas Card with Lawn Fawn

Posted by Leslie Turner on

Hey everybody, happy Wednesday - I hope you’re having a great week! Are you feverisly working on your Christmas cards? I make them year round to save myself from last-minute stress. Leslie here, sharing a tutorial for making an absolutely AH-dorable diamond panel Christmas card featuring the Lawn Fawn Sweet Christmas Mice Stamps, Stencils and Dies. This is a super easy design that could easily be mass-produced for those on your Christmas list! Let’s get started! 



CARD BASE & LAYERS

 

GREEN CARDSTOCK:

1.    Card base: 5-1/2” x 8-1/2”, scored at 4-1/4” using the Spellbinders 12x12 Scoring Board. Trim 1-5/8” off the front flap and save the piece for the next step.

2.    Front diamonds: 1-5/8” x 1-5/8” (cut three squares). Use the reserved piece cut off the front flap.  

 

GOLD FOIL CARDSTOCK:

1.    Front layering panel: 2-1/2” x 5-3/8”.

2.    Inside layering panel: 4-1/8” x 5-3/8”.

 

PATTERNED PAPER (All from the Lawn Fawn All The Sparkles 6x6 Petite Paper Pack):

1.    Front layering panel: 2-3/8” x 5-1/4”.

2.    Front diamonds: 1-1/2” x 1-1/2” (cut three squares).

3.    Inside layering panel: 4” x 5-1/4”.

4.    Inside embellishing strip: 3/4” x 2-1/2”.

 

WHITE CARDSTOCK:

1.    Inside sentiment panel: 2-3/4” x 4-1/2”.

 



STAMP, STENCIL & CUT FOCAL IMAGES

 

Using the Mini MISTI, stamp all the desired sentiments and images from the Lawn Fawn Sweet Christmas Mice Stamps in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on a piece of white cardstock. Don’t remove the stamps from the MISTI yet.

 

Next, secure the stamped sentiments and images to the Ranger-Wendy Vecchi 7” Make Art Stay-tion with magnets. Using the Lawn Fawn Sweet Christmas Mice Stencils, Spellbinders 5/8” Best Ever Craft Tape, Ranger Tiny Blending Tools and Foams, and a variety of Ranger Distress Oxide Inks, stencil the focal images. I used Candied Apple Distress Oxide Ink, Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Ink, Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide Ink, and Peeled Paint Distress Oxide Ink.

 

Place the stamped and stenciled sentiments and images back into the Mini MISTI, and stamp once again in Versafine Onyx Black Ink to get good, crisp lines. Now cut them all using the Lawn Fawn Sweet Christmas Mice Dies.




ADHERE LAYERS

 

Using the Scrapbook Adhesives E-Z Runner Permanent Strips, adhere the front and inside patterned paper pieces from the Lawn Fawn All The Sparkles 6x6 Petite Paper Pack to the gold foil cardstock pieces and then glue them to the front and inside of the card base. Next, adhere the patterned paper squares to the cardstock squares and add them to the right edge of the short flap of the front of the card base in diamond orientation. Use the My Sweet Petunia Glue Press with Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue for this step, popping the center diamond up with Scrapbook Adhesives Thin 3D Foam Squares. Adhere the embellishing strip to the inside sentiment white cardstock panel using the My Sweet Petunia Glue Press with Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue. I ended up adding one more striped scrap (3/8” x 2-3/4”) to create a little interest.  





ADD FRONT SENTIMENTS & IMAGES

 

Using the My Sweet Petunia Glue Press with Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue, adhere the sentiments and images to the card front, reserving the cupcake image for the inside.





STAMP INSIDE SENTIMENT & ADD IMAGE

 

Using the Mini MISTI, stamp the inside sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Sweet Christmas Mice Stamps directly on the inside sentiment panel in Versafine Onyx Black Ink. Adhere the leftover cupcake image to the bottom right corner of the inside panel using the My Sweet Petunia Glue Press with Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue.



COMPLETE PROJECT

 

Adhere the inside panel to the inside of the card base using the Scrapbook Adhesives E-Z Runner Permanent Strips, and your card is complete.
