Festival of Trees

Good morning, another Christmas Card to share with you today.

 

This stamp set "Festival of Trees" is just so easy to use and I love how you can layer the images on top of each other or leave the trees undecorated.

 

My colour combo is

Lost Lagoon

Pear Pizzazz

teamed with Whisper White

 

I embossed the first layer using the large polka dot embossing folder, I love everything spots so this is one of my faves!

 

Using my Big Shot machine I die cut a frame using the "Window Frames" framelit dies in Pear Pizzazz cardstock, then used the co-ordinating Piercing Pack to poke holes around the outside using the template.

 

My greeting came from the "Bright and Beautiful" stamp set, inked up with Lost Lagoon ink.  The ribbon behind can be found in the Autumn/Winter catalogue, I love how everything co-ordinates.

 

 

I stamped the trees onto Lost Lagoon cardstock using the same coloured ink, then with Craft White Ink I stamped the "tinsel" stamp and dipped into my white embossing power and heated using my heat tool.

 

I punched a couple of Silver Stars using the star punch from the "Itty Bitty Accents" punch set and added to the top of the trees.

 

 

I hope you like today's card.

All things "Bright and Beautiful"

I'm not quite sure where the last week has gone to, in fact, I'm not sure what happened to September altogether!!

 

Today's card features a couple of new stamp sets from the Autumn/Winter Catalogue, the alphabet set "Back to Basics" is from the current Annual Catalogue.

 

The gorgeous star image is from a set called

"Bright and Beautiful" and I just can't put it down, I have had so much use out of it already and we are still a couple of month's away from Christmas!

 

The word "Christmas" is from an amazing Photopolymer set called "Endless Wishes", I love the font and how you can make many different combinations of greetings.  The set also has some Snowflake images which are gorgeous.

 

 

 

 

 

The word "happy" is from a fab set called "Back to Basics" and I used the Banner Punch to cut them out

 

My colour combo here is Soft Suede for the base then Lost Lagoon for the front layer, all teamed with Whisper White.

 

 

 

I heat embossed the star to give a nice shimmery finish.
