‘TIS THE SEASON

I won’t be sending as many Christmas cards as I have been making but they won’t go unused.

There’s a new monthly market opening soon in Kangaroo Point. It starts on the 7th and 8th November and I will be there with my card and gift boxes.

So I am busily making projects ready to sell – I’m hoping that this will be a great opportunity to promote classes and workshops.

For this card I wanted to use the EVERGREEN FOREST 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER and a piece of the BRUSHED METALLIC CARDSTOCK.

The large tree stamp from the WINTER WOODS STAMP SET coordinate perfectly. I stamped three of them using Shaded Spruce cardstock and ink.

They were then cut using the IN THE WOODS DIES.

Wrapping a piece of the metallic ribbon and using a few STAR DESIGNER ELEMENTS finished the card off really well.

It is an uncomplicated card that I think stampers with a little more experience, than beginner, would enjoy making this card. What do you think?

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

These are the products I used to make this card. If you live anywhere in Australia, you can order any of them through me.

STUNNING BRUSHED METALLIC CARD STOCK

There is an amazing new bundle of card stock that can be ordered from August 4th.

The BRUSHED METALLIC CARD STOCK is collection of 12″x 12″ metallic paper in BRONZE, COPPER and GOLD. There are two of each in the bundle.

I decided to use this card stock with the STITCHED TRIANGLE DIES.

This is the second card I have made, in as many days, using a Basic Black card base. I think the black is a perfect background for these triangles.

I knew that I wanted to use the Thank You from the ORNATE THANKS STAMP SET for this card. I was so pleased by how well the heat embossed sentiment looks on the metallic card stock.

I used a soon to be available punch for the sentiment banner – BANNER PICK A PUNCH. It is in the August through December Mini Catalogue (Holiday Catalogue) which will go live to customers on August 4th.

I popped a few of the triangles up using dimensionals.

This is definitely a card for grown ups and it is not gender specific. I think it would go well with an elegant gift that has similar metallic/black colouring.

There are so many creative possibilities with these triangle dies.

There are two products that I can’t show in the space below, so here they are:
