One of the newer kits in the Kits Collection by Stampin’ Up! is the Cozy & Bright kit which features enough supplies to make 12 festive holiday cards with classic pine, cinnamon, and orange designs. I couldn’t help myself… In a goal to stretch the kit to make even more cards I was able to triple the cards from the kit with these sets of designs. If you want to do the same, you could pick one of these three sets or make ALL of them. Each set of three is made from one card and one envelope from the kit. So all together I got these nine cards from three kit cards.

Set One…

Set Two…

Set Three…

Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

Measurements For Set #1

• Basic White Cardstock
  • (2) 4-1/4” x 11″ scored parallel to short side at 5-1/2”
• Soft Sea Foam Cardstock
  • 5-1/2” x 8-1/2″ scored parallel to short side at 4-1/4”
• Kit envelope
  • Cut to 3-1/4″ x 4-1/2″
• Kit card
  • Cut card in half down the middle, then cut the design and the back at 2-3/4″ to get 4 equal size pieces. Cut each of those to 4-1/8″ wide paying attention to where the cuts are going on the designs.
• Linen Thread
  • 10″
• Distressed Gold Specialty Paper
  • Scraps for punching trees

Tips…

• Add one 2-3/4″ x 4-1/8″ solid green piece and one 2-3/4″ x 4-1/8″ printed design piece to each card. But tear a long edge of the solid one before attaching.
• Punch a row of trees and then trim up what you need. If your sentiment is longer, you may want more than just 3 trees.
• You can use the kit scraps from the punched out pieces, left over envelope scraps, or even Basic White cardstock to make the 5/8″ tall sentiment strips. I stamped those, trimmed them at an angle, and added them with Dimensionals.
• Wrap the cinnamon sticks with Linen Thread. Add the orange, and then add the sticks with Dimensionals.
• For the third card stamp the sentiment, then add the printed envelope piece with Dimensionals.
• Stamp the insides of the cards if you wish.

• Kit envelope
  • Cut to 3″ x 4-1/4″

  • (2) 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″
• Linen Thread
  • 10″
• Distressed Gold Specialty Paper
  • Scraps for punching leaves
  • (2) 3/4″ x 4-1/4″

Tips…

• You can use the kit scraps from the punched out pieces, left over envelope scraps, or even Basic White cardstock to make the 5/8″ or 3/4″ tall sentiment strips.
• Add the solid green piece to a white card base. Then add a stamped sentiment strip.
• Layer the punched leaves behind the small orange. Wrap the cinnamon sticks with Linen Thread. Add the orange, and add the sticks with Dimensionals. Then add one more star anise tucked into the left corner.
• For the second card add the printed green piece to a white card base. Add the large orange and star anise. Then add a stamped sentiment strip with Dimensionals.
• For the third card stamp the sentiment, attach this envelope piece to the gold strips, then add the printed envelope layered piece to the front.
• Stamp the insides of the cards if you wish.

• Kit envelope
  • Cut to 2-5/8″ x 4-1/8″
• Kit card
  • Cut card in half down the middle, then cut the solid half at 2-3/4″ to get two pieces that measure 2-3/4″ x 4-1/4″. Cut the printed into two pieces the long way to get a piece that measures 1-7/8″ x 5-1/2″ and a piece that measures 2-3/8″ x 5-1/2″
• Linen Thread
  • 10″
• Distressed Gold Specialty Paper
  • Scraps for punching leaves

• Add the large orange to the larger printed base, and trim off the excess for the second card. After folding the z-fold base, add the printed pieces. Wrap the cinnamon sticks with Linen Thread and attach with Dimensionals. Stamp the inside sentiment.
• For the second card layer the punched leaves behind the small orange. Add the leftover orange section and the smaller orange to a solid green layer.
• You can use the kit scraps from the punched out pieces, left over envelope scraps, or even Basic White cardstock to make the 5/8″ tall sentiment strip. Add it with a Dimensional. Then add a large star anise with a Dimensional and small star anise.
• For the third card stamp the sentiment, then add the printed envelope piece to the other solid green layer. Add it to the card with Dimensionals.
• Stamp the insides of the cards if you wish.
