Christmas Greetings

Helo there my crafty friends!  I embossed the background with the Falling Snow embossing folder for texture.  I cut the Christmas Big Bold Word die out of white card and glued it to the backing piece cut in white.  I covered a piece of blue card with a sticky adheisve sheet then coated it with Canadian Blue Polished Silk Glitter, then cut the Christmas die out of it.  I used all f the fall away pieces and apper pieced them back into the white Christmas die cut.  I attached it to the left side of the card with mounting foam.  I cut the Snowman for the Build A Snowman die set and dressed him up with atop hat and broom and added a lightpost behind him.  I stamped the word Greetings and cut it out with a tag die and hung a small ornament from it and added it to the top of the card.  The card was completed with white and navy blue mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  All for now.

Hi Sue and all that pop in, I really enjoyed the recent launch and the samples you inspired us with, but just adding your little snowman etc takes it to another level, even batch making this design with the additional little dies would be lovely. I do love your work I never know what I'm going to wake up to but you always start my day with a smile. You've kept me afloat for the past year thank you xx

Morning Sue, beautiful card. I'm waiting for my dies till next month but these are in the box.Last year Iused your snowman die and they wore masks for the season, but its a pity no one else did. A

Lisbeth said...

Hi Sue. What a lovely way to show off the bold sentiments by dressing it up with the cute snowman. I am sure there are lots of your previous dies that can be used in this way, I must have a rummage through my stash.

This card has a different look than others using the Big Bold Words and I think it’s the white background. The beautiful dark blue glitter used on the bold word makes it really pop off the card! I love the look and the texture added with the embossing folder is perfect for the snow effect.
