Wishing You Peace, Love & Joy
Hello crafters! I started by cutting the 3D Card Maker B out of white card. I found some dotty paper in my stash so I decided to use it as a sort of wall paper for the scene, so I cut it using the same 3D Card Maker die and glued it to the white die cut. Using the Cosy Fireside Christmas die set, I cut the fireplace out of slate grey card. I added a brown mantle and a gold clock to it. I cut three stockings in red and added white tops to them and attached them to the fireplace. I cut the firewood grate and coloured it and added it to the fireplace. I cut the tree out of green card and coloured the ornaments with markers and added it to the right side pop up. I cut an assortment of presents and bows in various colours and added them to the left side pop up and some extras to the area in front of the tree. I cut a wreath and added a red bow and ribbon circling the wreath. I added the wreath to a black and white frame using the Double Stitched Squares. I used the greenery swag across the top of the card and added red bows at each join area. I cut the Wishing You Peace, Love & Joy sentiment out of black and added it to a white shadow backing piece and attached it to the bottom of the card. The finished dimensions are 5" x 6" in size.
Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, fantastic sample today, I have the die that does the inside and it is so useful, your card is the perfect example of how to use it and give the best display of the design, love it, thank you for sharing.
