Hey everybody! Are you ready for the big jolly man in the red suit to visit in a couple weeks?! He’ll be here whether you’re ready or not, lol! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Ally’s Angels and I’m super stoked to share my DT inspiration project for Challenge #77! This Christmas card is a super simple design with snowflakes die cut directly into the front panel with blue craft foam placed behind the apertures so it’s seen through the snowflakes and around the edges of the panel.
I cut a standard A2 size side-folding card base and layering panels from CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock and blue craft foam. Using the Taylored Expressions snowflake die (freebie with an order), I die cut three snowflakes into the layering panel and stamped a sentiment from the Taylored Expressions Winter Wishes stamp set in Catherine Pooler Cove Blue ink in the bottom right corner. I fastened teal glittered brads from my stash to the center of each snowflake and adhered the blue craft foam behind the panel.
I cut the inside panel from Basis Natural, embellished it with a strip of Darice blue cardstock and a leftover strip of Basis Natural, and stamped another sentiment from the Taylored Expressions Winter Wishes stamp set in Catherine Pooler Cove Blue ink.
