Hero Arts Yule Fuel

Hello friends - here with my final card on the ScrapbookPal 2024 Design Team.  It was such a pleasure being on the team and sharing with all of you.  Thanks to ScrapbookPal for the opportunity.  This definitely isn’t goodby or anything because I do the bulk of my cardmaking purchases with them.  You can’t beat their quick turnaround for shipping!

I created this card using the New Hero Arts – Yule Fuel – Cup Of Cheer Betterpress & Foil Plate and the Yule Fuel – Celebration Betterpress & Foil Plate.

The Santa mug reminded me of the vintage mugs my Mom would put out at Christmas, so I set out to create a card that had a vintage vibe that has a modern-day spin. 

To start, I used the Celebration Plate along with Gold Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil on a cream colored cardstock.  I also used the sentiment included with the Cup Of Cheer Plate using my Betterpress Letterpress System with Bark Betterpress Ink.

I felt like the background needed just a little bit more, so I used the Celebration Plate again using Cruise Betterpress Ink.  I made sure that I rotated the plate from when I used the foil so that my dots were in a different spot on the cardstock.

To finish my background, I cut it to 4.0” x 5.25” using the Lawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables.  Once it was cut, I dusted the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink to give it a more vintage look.  I cut piece of patterned paper to 4.25” x 5.5” using the Large Rectangle Stitched Rectangle Die

I used the cup with the Cup Of Cheer plate with Pinkfresh Berrylicious Ink in the Betterpress Letterpress System.  I fussy cut the cup including the little area inside the handle. 

I used the Lawn Fawn Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder Die for my latte cup.  I made mine to hold a gift card, cut you wouldn’t have to.  I used patterned paper for the cup elements. 


 Once my latte cup was assembled, I adhered the Santa mug and then adhered it to the background.  I also added a few snowflakes cut from gold glitter cardstock using the Stitched Ornaments Die.

The glue that I used for this project is Bearly Are Precision Craft Glue along with the Sweet Petunia  Precision Glue Press.

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today!
