Forever Royal

As many of you know I work for the KC Royals and for the past few years some of my Dear Ticket Selling Friends gather at my house for a ROYAL cardmaking session.  Each year I have designed some Royals inspired cards.  It was so easy the past 2 years with our winning ways and timely stamp sets that captured the moments perfectly.

This year has been a bit of a struggle, but when I saw this sentiment I knew this would be part of this years cards.  It just took me awhile to get to these cards.  Both were inspired by swaps from the recent OnStage November 5th.  Thanks for the Inspiration!!

And here we go, Stampin' Up does not currently have a Royal Blue in the color family, so I am using several Blues to show our LOVE for our Boys in Blue!

 First up the Trees!!  I love this one for obvious reasons!!  Pacific Point card base, Softly Falling embossed layer of Whisper White.  FOREVER was stamped in Night of Navy BEFORE embossing.  And yes I cut off the rest of the sentiment to insure no hint of the other words show on our projects!!  Trees were stamped in Night of Navy, Pacific Point and Marina Mist and cut out with the Peaceful Pines Framelits.  So easy, you can cut ALL 3 trees at the same time!!  ROYAL was spelled out with Labeler Alphabet.  I won this set last year at Convention, little did I know how handy this set would be this Christmas!!

This card is a Flurry of Snowflakes in the same colors,  Pacific Point, Marina Mist and Soft Sky on the Smoky Slate background.  Forever Royal is again stamped in Night of Navy.  I stamped 2 snowflakes on Whisper White and punched out with the matching punch.  Sequins and Rhinestones were added for some sparkle and a bit of Whisper White craft ink was added to the background with the Gorgeous Grunge spatter stamp.
