Hello bloggers! I wanted to share one of the Stamps To Die For that matches the Marilynne die from the Festive release. I used a piece of Pixie Powdered card as the background. It was made with Midnight Blue and Purple Violet. I cut the Felicity die in white as a backdrop. I stamped The Marilynne's Lamplight Stamp To Die For in black. I used Distress Markers to colour it in. I cut it out with the matching Marilynne die and added it to the centre with foam. This card would be a good one for batch cardmaking but if you want to add a bit more detail to it, you can stamp the stamp again and then cut out the wreath or the sign or birds and layer them up too! I completed the card with a simple white on white mat and layer. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 7 1/4" in size. All for now. Sue x
