Candy Cane Wishes & Mistletoe Kisses

Hello bloggers!  I started by cutting the Pierced Lattice Background twice out of white card.  I crisscrossed the dies, then added a piece of white card covered with a sticky adhesive sheet to it.  I coated the remaining exposed sticky areas with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  I cut the Candy Canes out of Ruby Red card and added a white backing to them.  I crisscrossed them and added them to the middle of the card.  I cut a bow out of red glittered card and added it across the two candy canes.  I accented it with two greenery sprays.  I cut eight holly leaves and added them in twos to the corners of the card with red berries coated with Cosmic Lacquer.  I cut the sentiment from the Festive Wordie sheets and put part on top and the rest of the saying on the bottom of the card.  I added the entire piece to a larger piece of white card where I glittered the edges with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  The card was completed with white and red mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  6 3/4  in size.


  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue

A gorgeous card. Love the colours. It’s so crisp. I love how you’ve used the pierced lattice background and backed the red candy canes with white to stand out. They are accented perfectly by the glittered bow and greenery sprays.just lovely.

Stunning post. I have loved all your creations using the candy canes, particularly as it is a die that I would never usually go for.
