Magic of the Season

Hey, guess who's back this month at AllyScraps?? It's Roree Rumph, and boy are we excited. She's promised tons of Christmasy inspiration,and since we're focusing on Christmas this month, it's perfect timing! :)




Roree's created two sweet and festive cards to share with us this weed.




Happiness and Joy
1. Make a 3 3/4 x 5 1/4" card from off-white cardstock.
2. Cut the graph patterned paper to 2 3/4 x 5 1/4". Distress the edges with a file, and adhere the panel to the top of the card.
3. Cut the blue patterned paper to 1 x 5 1/4". Distress the edges with a file, and adhere the panel to the bottom of the card.
4. Cut a 1/2 x 5 1/4" strip from the green patterned paper, and use decorative scissors to scallop one edge. Distress the edges with a file, and adhere the strip where the graph patterned paper panel and blue patterned paper panel meet.
5. Cut a tree branch shape from a 1 1/2 x 4 1/2" panel of brown cardstock. Adhere the shape to the card, leaving the center where the ornaments will hang adhesive-free. Adhere the bird sticker just above the tree branch shape.
6. Adhere some baker's twine to the back of the ornament stickers, adhere the stickers in place, thread the twine under the tree branch shape, and tie bows for each. Trim the ends.
7. Apply the rub-on sentiment to the bottom right corner of the graph patterned paper panel.
8. Cut out 4 snowflakes fro the blue snowflake patterned paper. Cut one of the snowflakes in half. Distress the edges with a file, and adhere the snowflakes to the card.




Magic of the Season
1. Make a 5 1/4 x 3 3/4" card from off-white cardstock.
2. Cut the multi-dot patterned paper to 3/4 x 3 3/4". Distress the edges with a file, and adhere the panel to the top of the card.
3. Cut the blue patterned paper to 3 x 3 3/4". Distress the edges with a file, and adhere the panel just below the multi-dot paper panel.
4. Cut two panels from the graph patterned paper: one at 2 1/2 x 3 3/4" and one at 1 3/4 x 3 3/4". Cut a wavy edge along the top of both panels, distress the edges with a file, and layer and adhere the panels to the bottom of the card.
5. Cut two 1/2 x 3 3/4" strips from the green patterned paper, and use decorative scissors to scallop one edge of each. Distress the edges with a file, and adhere the strips along the top of the blue patterned paper panel and along the bottom edge of the card.
6. Apply the rub-on sentiment to the top corner of the blue patterned paper panel.
7. Attach brown brads to the snowman cardstock stickers, and layer and adhere the snowmen to the card, tucking the them just under the edge of the top graph patterned paper panel.
8. Cut out 3 snowflakes fro the blue snowflake patterned paper. Distress the edges with a file, and adhere the snowflakes to the card.
