Tis The Season
Hello bloggers! I cut the Holly Floating background die out of green card. I added mounting foam to the back of the holly background and added it to a piece of lime green card. I cut a frame out of lime green card using the Double Stitched Circles. I added mounting foam to the back of the frame then attached it to a piece of lime green card and taped it to the centre of the background. I cut a bunch of the berries in red, then added them to the holly background. I cut the Tis The Season in white and glued it inside the frame. I made a red glittered poinsettia from the Stylish Poinsettia set and added it to the edge of the frame with two green leaves as accents. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size.
Morning Sue. I really love this die now that I can see what can be done with it. I can just imagine it with different colours behind the holly leaves for some variation of colour.
Morning Sue, beautiful card, think I may be making this later today with my prize which arrived yesterday. I absolutely love all the dies in this collection, thank you again. Love Jean xxx

Hi Sue, a lovely card and the holly frame really does seem to be floating. The glittered poinsettia is the perfect finishing touch.
