The challenge for Day 21 of the 30 Day Christmas Card Making Challenge is “First Snowflake”.
I’ve used my favourite Christmas stamp set, Yuletide Village, the Frosted Forest dies and the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder to create this winter village scene.
The stamped images have been coloured using Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends before being fussy cut with Paper Snips.
The gorgeous “Let it Snow” sentiment is from the Sophisticated Sled Stamp Set.
I’ll be back tomorrow with another “30 Days of Christmas” Christmas card.
We’re halfway through the 30 Day Christmas Card Making Challenge and the challenge for Day 15 is “Twinkle Twinkle”.
I’ve combined something old (the Merriest Tree stamp set & dies and the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder) with something new (the Season of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Brushed Silver & Gold Foil Specialty Paper) to make today’s Christmas card.
The “Twinkle, Twinkle” element of my card is the lovely stars that top each tree, decorate the gold foil tree and are scattered on the embossed background. These are all created using Merriest Tree dies to die cut Brushed Gold Foil Specialty Paper with an adhesive sheet attached to turn the die cuts into stickers.
I’ve also used the adhesive backed gold foil to die cut strings of lights for the tree on the right and for the baubles on the middle tree. A strip of striped DSP from the Season of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper finishes off the bottom of the card.
I’ll be tomorrow I’ll be back tomorrow with another “30 Days of Christmas” Christmas card.
The Art With Heart, Heart of Christmas team are back for 2024 and ready to inspire you for the next seventeen weeks with our Heart of Christmas blog hop!
It’s been so cold here recently I decided to embrace the winter vibes and create a snowy Christmas card to kick off our Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2024.
As demonstrators we get to preorder from the Christmas Catty (September – December Catalogue) tomorrow morning, but in the meantime we have some amazing new online exclusives, Annual Catalogue products and carryover items to play with until the new products arrive.
I’m using the online exclusive, Greetings of the Season Bundle.
The Annual Catalogue bundle, Country Birdhouse.
The carry over Forever Forest dies.
And these carry over items, Grove dies and the Grassy Grove stamp set.
My colour combination is Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Basic White and Basic Black. The embossed background is created with the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder. This will be getting a lot of use for my Christmas cards.
The door on the house is created using one of the dies from the new Greetings of the Season bundle with the “For You” sentiment white heat embossed. I popped an adhesive snowflake on the Crumb Cake window and added a tiny bow of Black Bakers twine.
My wooden cabin in the snow has been die cut using the Country Birdhouse dies from the Country Woods DSP – there are so many wonderful wood patterns in this DSP pack!
The trees and the deer are from the Grassy Grove stamp set and Grove dies.
Inside the card I’ve used the largest sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set.
