Dashing into Gold!
Posted on: Sunday, October 18th, 2009
I love this stamp!!! It is one of the awesome “Under $10″ stamps on page 208 of the new catalog.
And I have to resist the urge to set rhinestones in the swirls… (now why would I even *try* to resist?)!
The ingredients of this card are:
- Dasher stamp (#116816, $8.95)
- Serene Snowflakes (Holiday Mini Catalog #115438, $20.95)
- Very Vanilla Cardstock (#101650, 40 sheets, $7.50)
- Brushed Gold cardstock (#102935, 10 sheets, $7.95)
- Gold embossing powder (#109129, $4.75)
- Heat Tool (#100005, $29.95)
- Gold Cording (#109867, 25 yds, $4.95)
- 12″ trimmer
The brushed Gold cardstock was cut 3 3/4 by 4 1/2 and after embossing was cut at 2 inches, then 1/2 inch and assembled onto the cardfront as shown.
I used a 1/16th inch hole punch to ‘nick’ the sides to hold the cording in place as I twined and tied the bow.
How stinkin’ cute?! And so easy…

Great tip on “nicking” the paper to hold the cording, that will make things so much easier – what a smart cookie you are!
Your card is beautiful!

Love the gold card, reminds me of my first xmas tree that friends and I had decorated with golden beer cans after drinking the cans during an UNO game and listening to jack of hearts by dylan.
