Greetings

Hello bloggers!   As we get closer and closer to Christmas, I am realising just how many Christmas cards I have left to share! LOL     I selected a piece of cobalt blue card for this one.  I used the Pearl Whisper Airless Mister across the blue card to create a starry backdrop and dried it with a heat tool.    Next I used the Winter Pines and cut three large trees, two small trees and a couple of stars.  I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz and glittered all the trees and added them to the background.  I cut the Greetings Big Bold Word die out of cobalt blue and black card.  I used the black die cut as a shadow behind the blue one, then added a white backing piece.  I added mounting foam to the back of the die cut and attached it in the centre of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  9"  in size.   All for now,  Sue x

Morning Sue, what a stunning creation, love my big bold word dies, and your combination of the blue and white with the glittery trees, just gives so much inspiration on what you can do with them. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx

Good Morning Sue. Oh I love this sue. I was the lucky winner when this Greetings Die was launched. And I love it. But you have given me new ideas for it now with this Beautiful card. Simple but stunning. And I have a couple of hours free this afternoon so I can have a play. Maybe I can recreate this lovely card for one of my friends. Thankyou so much Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.
PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds

I am amazed at how many lovely cards you come up with Sue, I love the fact you have used the big die over the trees, I would not have thought of doing that. I love the big dies, they are so easy to use!
