More fabulous stamps and dies to show off today. First up are the Filled Christmas Tree Stamp set along with the Dual Stitched Christmas Trees Dies. These two work great together, or on their own. I stamped two of the tree images onto Cloud White card stock and then used the dies to cut them out. Do you notice how the trees are a little smaller? That's because I only inked up the top halves of the trees (there are smaller tree trunks, too). Love that you can get two sizes from one one stamp.
I sponged on some Broken China distress ink onto some water color paper and then splattered on some clean water to create some texture. After that was dry, I also splattered on some white ink to give the illusion of snow. I cut out that whole panel with the Silly Stitched Rectangle dies. I popped up my trees and then added the Merry Christmas Border Die across the bottom. A trio of clear sequins finish it off.
For my next card I used the Dual Stitched Christmas Tree dies again, but this time I created a shaker with it. I used the smaller tree to cut out the window on my tree. I filled it with some festive sequins.
I mounted it onto a Stitched Rounded Rectangle panel that I stamped one of the sentiments from All The Christmas You'll Ever Need 2 stamp set. Too Fun!
Prompted by the background I created I used the gorgeous Brush Script Christmas Word Dies. It is soooo amazing! I love the font. Here is a closer look.
That's all from me today. Here is another look at the new release products I used today.
