I'm sharing 2 cards today -- and they are my favorites for this release.
AWAY IN THE MANGER
There are 2 dies in Away in the Manger, but they pack a punch. Wanted to use a lot of these stars, so this is an A6 card (4 and 1/8 x 5 and 7/8).
Paired the star die with part (yes, I cut the stamp) of a sentiment from The Best Gift of All.
PLAID LINES SMALL
This cover plate is another fun, graphic plate and I've already seen beautiful cards using it as a background layer. I decided to use it as the focus of the card -- the colors and "ornaments" suggest a holiday card. I love this style, but it may not be for everyone.
Since this card is a little unusual, here are the steps to make it.
1. Trim a piece of white cardstock to A2 size.
2. Die cut circles out of the white copy paper to make room for the green and red circles.
3. Die cut green and red circles and place (don't permanently adhere) in the the white cardstock base.
4. Die cut panel with Plaid Lines Small. Remove all the die cut squares and rectangles and set aside.
5. Trim panel to 4" x 5 and 1/4".
6. Place die cut panel on your surface and adhere each rectangle and square with foam adhesive.
7. Adhere to A2 kraft card and add sentiments from Yuletide Mice and sequins.
8. Take your time and relax. It took about 45 minutes to make this once I figured out the design in my head. If you don't like piece work, this isn't for you! I find it relaxing.
I hope you are checking out the other designers; they are so talented!
MOOD WHEN DONE: I'm not done sharing for this release. I'll be back with more!
