Petite Christmas Notes

Today I created something a little different.  I made two collections of Petite Christmas notes.  During my various craft shows I noticed people coming to my booth were drawn to my business card which lookes like a small card.  So, drawing on that, I decided to design some petite notes and put them in a hand made box.

Two stamp sets were used:  Seasonal Bells and Hang Your Stockings.  The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.

Each card is 3 3/8 by 4 1/2" scored at 2 1/4" to make a 2 1/4 by 3 3/8" petite note card

The base for each note card is Shimmery White cardstock, layered with 3 3/4 by 2 1/8" of Presents
and Pinecones DSP.  The art piece is 2 3/4 by 1 5/8"

Each note card set consists of 4 Petite note cards with a hand made envelope for each card.  They are placed in a hand made box which was made using the Thick Whisper White card stock.

Two petite note cards were made of this design.

The art piece was stamped randomly first with the snowflake stamp from Hang Your Stocking, in Mint Macaron ink, followed by the flower in Cherry Cobbler ink.

A 1 3/4" gold foil circle was adhered to this piece, and some 3/8" Delightful Dijon ribbon near the bottom.

On this background were placed two bells from the Seasonal Bells stamp set.

These bells were stamped in Delightful Dijon ink, and punched out using the Bell Punch. A gold glimmer star was attached to the center of each bell.  Both bells are joined to each other at an angle, and a bow made with the 3/8" Delightful Dijon ribbon was adhered at the top.

The sentiment, from Teeny Tiny wishes was stamped in Cherry Cobbler was punched out using the Word Label punch and attached to the top of the note front at an angle.

Two other note cards were made of this design.  This time the bells are stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink, a dazzling diamond snowflake adhered to the bell center, and a bow made with a b bow made using Cherry Cobbler ribbon adhered to the top.

Two stockings were stamped with Delightful Dijon ink and die cut using the Christmas Stockings Thinlet Die. Some ivy was also die cut as well as the berries.  On this note I use 3/8" silver glitter ribbon.

Two others were made using stockings stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink.
