My last Holiday Catalog project featuring the Christmas Sweater stamp set (#144893 Wood-mount / #144896 Clear-mount). I thought this crazy Christmas sweater stamp set would be perfect for a fun memory card matching game for one of my nephews.
It was simple and easy to create. I cut 24 2-1/2" squares of Thick Whisper White cardstock and stamped 4 of each sweater design. Then I pulled out all of my Stampin' Write Markers, Watercolor Pencils, Blender Pens, Stampin' Blends, Ink Pads, and Aquapainters and had a blast coloring the tacky sweaters!
On the back I randomly stamped snowflakes and swirls in Pacific Point, Pool Party, and Smoky Slate ink from the Snowflake Sentiment stamp set.
My nephew absolutely loved the sweater game! We had a great time playing over the Christmas vacations!
I created the box using Real Red cardstock and Christmas Around the World Designer Series Paper. I cut a 7-1/2" by 3-1/2" piece of Real Red cardstock.
Then I scored it with the 7-1/2" edge along the top of the Simply Scored Board at 2-3/4", 3-1/2", 6-/4", and 7". Next I rotated the cardstock 90 degrees and scored at 3/4". Then I cut the bottom score lines up to the 3/4" score line, added Tear & Tape to the flaps, and folded into a box.
For the lid, I started with a 3-13/16" by 1-13/16" piece of Christmas Around the World Designer Series Paper. Then I scored each side at 1". I cut the score lines up to the 1" score line, added Tear & Tape, and folded into a box.
I can see this stamp set made into a cute garland or a tag to top a gift! What projects would you make with the Christmas Sweater stamp set? I would love to see what you make!
Thanks for stopping by!
