Festive Friday Challenge #174: 12 Days of Christmas with Sophisticated Sled

6 Dec

It’s time for a Festive Friday Challenge! This week’s Festive Friday Design Team’s challenge #FF0174 is 12 Days of Christmas! For my challenge card I picked out the Stampin’ Up! Sophisticated Sled Bundle …. this set comes with winter images and sentiments that work for Christmas or any winter project!

What is the Festive Friday Challenge? Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo (Inspirations) List. The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Pick three of these items to create your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge 12 Days of Christmas is this week’s theme but guess what? Your project doesn’t have to be about this theme at all! I hope you’ll join in on the fun and make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item for this week’s challenge!

Check out this link on how you can play along. If you want help entering, please email me at birdsnestdesigns@gmail.com and I’d be happy to help you!

There are so many great items on this list it was difficult to just pick three. In the end I chose silver, blue and shimmery jewels to feature on my card for this challenge.

What will you choose from this week’s Inspo List? Create a project and share it with us!

Let’s make this sophisticated sled christmas card

  • Cut a Misty Moonlight card base 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 scored at 4-1/4
  • Fold the card base on the score line and adhere the Basic White insert (4 x 5-1/4) to the inside of the card
  • Using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder emboss the 4 x 5-1/4 Misty Moonlight piece and adhere to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals
  • Cut a 2 x 5 piece of Iconic Celebrations Designer Series Paper (candy canes) and adhere to the card front
  • Cut a Basic White Nested Essential label and adhere the right side to the right edge of the DSP
  • Wrap a piece of Silver & White Sheer Ribbon around and tie in a bow over the label, then adhere to the card front
  • Die cut the bottom of the sled from Cherry Cobbler cardstock and the top of the sled from Pecan Pie cardstock, assemble and adhere to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals
  • Die cut the arch shaped branch (swag) from Mossy Meadow cardstock and adhere to the top of the sled
  • Stamp the bow and greenery image with Tuxedo Black Memento ink, die cut and colour with Stampin’ Blends (Mossy Meadow, Misty Moonlight, Cherry Cobbler)
  • Attach coloured image to the sled with Stampin’ Dimensionals
  • Stamp sentiment on a scrap of Basic White with Misty Moonlight ink, trim and adhere to the bottom of the sled
  • Add three clear Drusy Adhesive-Backed Embellishments to the front of the card to complete

Meet Denise

Hi there! I’m Denise Cox—welcome to my crafty corner of the internet! I live in Saskatchewan, Canada with my husband Brandon, and a house full of furry love—our two dogs, Linus and Lucy, and our cats, Cleo and Chloe. I’ve been passionate about paper crafting for as long as I can remember and was introduced to Stampin’ Up! back in 2009. After falling in love with the products, I joined as a demonstrator the following year—and I’ve never looked back! I love sharing beautiful projects and helping others discover their creativity. Thanks for stopping by—I’m so glad you’re here!
