I have to admit, when I started creating I was not in the holiday, festive mood. it was sunny and almost 80 here in the midwest. BUT.....once I dug in, oh my....there is so much amazingness! Plus, it's never too early to start working on your holiday cards. I started off with the gorgeous new poinsettia set, called Festive Florals. I had a hard time putting this set down. I stamped in white craft ink onto some kraft card stock and used the Silly Stitched rectangle die to cut it out.
I then colored up a few of the holly leaf images and the berries and greenery with my copics and used the Festive Floral dies to cut them out. I added them to a strip of red card stock and stamped the sentiment from Festive Florals in black ink. I love the pretty, yet classic feel of this card. I added a touch of sparkle with some clear glitter on the berries.
While I still had this set out, I got busy stamping up a background with some tone on tone inking and the Festive Florals stamp set. I love how quickly it decorated the the Stitched Gift & Note Card Holder die. I tied it up with some burlap ribbon and added a fun tag with the Pinking Edge Sentiment Tag die.
Check out the adorbs reindeer. Yep, It's new and you can purchase him NOW! The set is called Rowdy Reindeer and you can customize his sweet little face
I stamped some tone on tone kraft ink along the top with the Festive Floral stamp set of the tag and then added a sentiment from Rowdy Reindeer in white embossing. It's the perfect sentiment for a gift card or cash (both which I love to give, btw!).
