May Your Days Be Merry & Bright
Good Sunday morning all! I started by stamping the snowflake from the Santa stamp set all over a piece of white card. I used a clear perfect medium pad to stamp it with and sprinkled white embossing powder over the stamped images and heated them. Next I cut the Looped Rectangles in black. I cut a matching frame using the Double Stitched Rectangles in white. I added mounting foam to the back of the frame, then added it to another piece of white card. I taped the frame to the Looped Rectangles and added it to the card with mounting foam. I cut the cottage from the Winter Wonderland die set in tan and backed it with a piece of custard card. I added a tan colored roof and filled in the detail with a fine tipped felt pen. I added several trees behind the building and next to it. I cut the deer and baby out of brown card and glued them in front of the trees. I added Iced Snow to the top of the trees and building for a frosty look. I cut the May Your Days be Merry & Bright sentiment in black and glued it to a white shadow backing piece. I added it below the focal element with mounting foam. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 3/4" in size.
Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, what a stunning creation today, love the house and yes I have these dies so can have a play later.
