R2G Card Kits - SU - Wonderful Wreath

Another Ready2Go Card Kit for a kid's Christmas Party!

This set has a Stampin Up True Thyme card base.  I used the Wonderful Wreath Stamp Set with the wreath in True Thyme.  The greeting in Riding Hood Red.  I added a RHRed Tafetta Ribbon bow held in place with a Zot.  This is such gorgeous ribbon, it ties beautifully and lies flat which makes a card which can easily be mailed.

R2G Card Kits - SU - Festival of Trees

Another Ready2Go Card kit for a kid's Christmas Party!

This kit has a Ruby Red card base.  I cut the greeting layer to 4.00W x 5.25T and created it with the Festival of Trees Stamp Set.  The tree outline is included on this layer.  I provided a white triangle tree cut to 2 7/8 W X 3 7/8 T onto which strips of Certainly Celery card stack was adhered.  Once I was happy with I just trimmed the green to the edge of the white triangle with scissors.  I adhered the strip tree onto the card front using the outline printed on it for alignment. The gold glitter stars were cut with the Sizzix Stars#2 die. I trimmed the pot with scissors leaving a small border all the way around. I adhered sequins on my tree then added the gold glitter star and the red pot with 3D foam tape.

I provided plenty of green strips and sequins to meet any kid's desire.

Card Kits - SU - Pink Owl

I'm working on card kits again. This time it's for a kid's Christmas party.

I started with the Stampin Up Owl Occasions stamp set and did him in Pretty in Pink.  The branch is done in black and the greeting from the same set in both colors.  I added a black triangle hat which was cut 1" W and 1.25" T then embossed with the Polka Dots folder.  I added a pink button at the top of the hat, held in place with a Zot.  The wiggly eyes make this card.  They are held in place with Bling Zots.

Ready2Go Card Kits - SU - Letter to Santa Buttons

The last set of card kits for this project. 
I selected two papers from the Letters to Santa Designer paper set.  The top is large bold words in Early Espresso on white and the bottom was Early Espresso background with diamond pattern in Old Olive.  I cut the bottom to 4.00" W x 3.5" T and the top to 4.00" W x 1.75" T.  I taped these together so they became one piece and then adhered the Old Olive Striped grosgrain ribbon over the join ensuring good adhesion where the button will be placed. I taped the ends to the back.  I adhered this to the card front.  I selected the Brushed Bronze buttons into which I tied a length of Old Olive grosgrain ribbon and trimmed the ends.  I adhered the button to the card front with a large Zot.

Ready2Go Card Kits - Festive Flurry Snowflake

I started with the Stampin Up Festive Flurry Ornament Kit.  I chose 4 of the 6 elements in the kit to make a set of card kits.  I printed a narrow border in the same color on the Soft Sky card front in order to ground the snowflake.  I adhered the largest Crumb Cake snowflake then the super sparkly glitter snowflake then the smallest Soft Sky snowflake which is mounted with 3D foam tape.  I cut the Crumb Cake circles that came with kit in half and it was mounted in the center of the card aligned with the bottom edge.  I printed greetings in Crumb Cake and cut them with the largest of the Bitty Banner Framelits and adhered it over the half circle. The greeting is from the Come to Bethlehem stamp set.

Ready2Go Card Kits - SU - Candy Cane Buttons

Another set of R2G card kits.
This set features the Candy Cane Designer Paper.  I cut the DSP into 4" squares.  I selected Not Quite Navy card bases.  The greeting is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set in Real Red on Whisper White.  I taped the greeting to the DSP square to create a full piece for the card front.  I wrapped a piece of RR grosgrain ribbon over the join and taped the ends to the back.  This layer was then adhered to the card front.  I chose buttons from the Candy Cane set which came in Garden Green, Real Red, Blushing Bride and Baja Breeze. I put red/green thread through the button then adhered the buttons to the right side of the greeting.

Ready2Go Card Kits - SU - Good Cheer Tree

This card kit features paper from the Stampin Up Be of Good Cheer Designer Paper which includes Cherry Cobbler and Gumball Green.  Using a CC red card base I added a Distressed Dots background to the card front.  I layered a piece of 2 x 5.5 inch designer paper across the center of the landscape card.  I layered my Festival of Trees in Gumball Green stamp with it's accent dots in Cherry Cobbler done on Very Vanilla onto a layer of green leaving a small border.  I cut a piece of Satin Stitched ribbon in the color to match the card, placed it behind the accent then adhered it to the card front as shown. 
 

R2G Card Kits - SU - Letters to Santa

Another set of Ready2Go Card Kits.  I started with one of the designs from the Letters to Santa double sided designer paper.  I cut the 12 x 12 inch sheets down into 2" strips giving me 12 per sheet.  I designed the greeting with the Ornament Keepsake stamp set in Marina Mist with Early Espresso on the outline and the greeting.  It is cut to 2.75 inches square.  The accent layers are Early Espresso card stock - strip is .5 inch and the square is 3 inches.  The DSP stripe is adhered to the left then the EE card stock strip.  The greeting layer is adhered with 3D foam tape.

I made some ornaments Riding Hood Red and others Old Olive with cards to match.

R2G Card Kits - SU - Wonderful Wreath

I used the Stampin Up Wonderful Wreath on this card as the central element.  It's done in Handsome Hunter.  The greeting is from the All Holidays set, done in Cherry Cobbler. These are on a Whisper White layer trimmed to 4.00 x 5.25 inches leaving the small border all the way around. I added a bow made with Cherry Cobbler Scalloped Tulle Ribbon.  I cut the piece to about 3.5 inches then gathered it together in the center and tied it off with a piece of white thread.  The tails were trimmed even. Some times I trimmed the ends of the bow as well to have each side even. It's held in place with a Zot. This is a bow that does not create a lot of thickness so it makes it mail friendly. 

R2G Card Kits - SU - Believe

Here's my next Stampin Up Ready 2 Go Card kit.  Again, I selected Winter Frost Designer Paper. I cut the DSP to 2.12 x 5.5 inches. I chose Pool Party card stock onto which I put stamps from Snowflake Soiree set, The snowflake in Smoky Slate and Believe in Bermuda Bay. I adhered the DSP layer it to the bottom of the landscape card. I then adhered a .5 x 5.5 inch strip of Whisper White over the edge of the DSP.  I added 3 rhinestones in clear and warm blue with Bling Zots to the right hand side of the white strip.

R2G Card Kits - SU - Jumbo Snowflake

I was asked to create some Stampin Up Ready 2 Go Card kits.  This is my first one.

I started with Winter Frost Designer Paper.  I cut it to 4.25 x 3.25 inches and adhered it to the bottom of the Smoke Slate portrait card. I placed the greeting combo from An Eventful Year and Remember December in Basic Grey in the top left hand corner. I cut a strip of Pool Party 4.25 inches wide and glued that at the top of the designer paper just overlapping a smidge. I punched a snowflake from Whisper White with the Jumbo Snowflake Punch and adhered it on the blue strip on the right hand side.
