Regal Reindeer

I have been wanting to create a card using The Saint Nicholas Bundle as well as Regal Reindeer which was in last years mini.  Regal Reindeer carried over into the annual catalogue but sadly Old World Santa is retiring in just a couple of weeks.  This card even features Merriest Tree's which will also be carried over from the September to December. 

This is a Z fold card.  I love using this style of car when creating a scene.  I'll show you a peak of a card I made for my daughter for Christmas using the same fold.  It isn't a Stampin Up set but when I saw it I knew I had to get it for Laura who is a huge Elf fan.  We always watched Elf together when she was home 



Oops sorry I got a little off track  I did use The Saint Nicholas  Bundle and Merriest Trees in this card too. 

The z fold cards are so much fun to make and they fit in a standard envelope.  


The directions for Regal Reindeer and Saint Nicholas are as follows 

Cherry Cobler-10 1/2 " x 4" scored at 2 1/2 & 5 1/2 
Cherry Cobbler -10 1/2 x 1 1/2 scored at  2 3/4 & 5 1/2 

I cut the designer series paper to fit.  There are so many options when decorating these types of cards.  you can use the same dsp on all sections or change it up.  Just cut 1'5 " ot 1/8 " smaller to give it that border. 

On the back of the card I cut a piece of white card stock 4 3/4 x 3 3/4 and glue on back of card for a message. 




I hope you try creating this z fold card and please send me a message if you have any questions. 

The Saint Nicholas bundle is still available but it is on the Last Chance List and once its gone its gone forever.   The paper is also well supplies last.

Weekend Christmas Craft Sale

We had a lot of fun participating as vendors in last weeks Christmas Craft Sale at St. Paul's Church in Sidney.  
We met a lot of great people and it was such a pleasure to talk to other vendors and especially all the people that came through.  The ladies had an amazing lunch each day too. I'm looking forward to the next one at Sidney Elementary School on Dec. 2nd.

Upcoming Changes

Hi there and Thank you for checking out my blog. It is a little outdated because I was attempting to create a website. Anyone that knows me knows I am not a techy type person and trying to build my own website was a great source of frustration to everyone around me lol. I did have quite a few posts on the site as well as our jewelry line though. I was making progress but it was slow and really do I need a website? I am now trying to change my domain to blogger which is very user friendly. Thank you blogger for that. :) Going forward, posts will be added to this site and any upcoming events and sales will be here as well as on facebook. https://www.facebook.com/100083435192675/ If you know how I can connect Peninsulacarsandcrafts.com to Blogger please let me know.
