Christmas Friends in Pool Party for the Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Insta Hop

Hello friends!  Happy Holidays!!!  I hope you are doing well on this first Friday of December!  Today I am hopping with some Crafty Collaborators along the Monochromatic Insta Hop over on Instagram.  Please be sure to hop over there to see all the inspirations using this week's color - Pool Party!

Today's Project

Today's project is using a favorite color from the Stampin' Up!® Subtles Color Collection - Pool Party!  I love blue green tones... and hope you will love this soft, playful color as much as I enjoyed using it for this project.   

The One of a Kind Bundle was perfect for repetitive stamping a Basic White cardstock layer to showcase this soft blue green tone!

The stamped layer was cut on a diagonal and adhered to a Basic White cardstock layer embossed with the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder.

The Pool Party 5/8" Pompom Ribbon was double wrapped around the adhered Basic White layers with Tear & Tape Adhesive.

Two Stylish Shapes Dies were used to die-cut a Pool Party cardstock circle and a Two-Tone Pool Party Pool cardstock circle.  The Pool Party circle was tone-on-tone stamped with Pool Party ink and the three One of a Kind snowflake images.  Two detailed Basic White One of a Kind snowflakes were sandwiched between the two Pool Party circle die-cuts.  

The Christmas Friends polar bear image was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock, colored with the Pool Party Stampin' Blends Markers, and lovingly fussycut.  The Decorative Trees sentiment was stamped in Pool Party ink and fussy cut. 

The assembled layers were adhered to the Pool Party pocket fun-fold card base. 

The inside was stamped and layered to compliment the card front.  The Reindeer Fun sentiment was stamped in Pool Party ink allowing plenty of room to correspond to friends over the holiday.  The pocket on the left side can hold so many types of goodies for the recipients.  The Basic White Medium Envelope flap was embossed to complete the card ensemble.
