Season's Greetings

Hello crafters!  I embossed a piece of white card with the Tidal Sands embossing folder.  I cut the Stained Glass Candle die starting from the outermost die, I cut the frame in white and coated it with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  I cut the middle die in white.  I cut the Candle die out of black card on top of a piece of white card.  I used the white die cut as the base and coloured it with markers.  I added a piece of sticky adhesive sheet over the top, peeled the backing paper off, then lined up the black die cut on top. I coated the adhesive with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.   I matted the three pieces of the Stained Glass Candle and added them to the background with mounting foam.  I cut the sentiment from the Christmas Wordie Sheets and added it below the focal element.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size.

The winner of the July Die Release Blog Launch is.............................................................................................................................................................,.....

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh I love this candle card, I made one similarly but I didn't colour in the candle, I left it white, after seeing yours I should have coloured it, brilliant, and I loved making it with the stained glass collection, all interchangeable too, fabulous collection.

Congratulations Hazel on winning the halloween collection, enjoy.

Steph I hope you are on the mend xx

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
