For the third day, the design team is showcasing the Holiday Stockings stamp set (NOTE: you can cut these images using the Stylish Stockings Die Set), and the Ornamental Wishes with the Ornament Shaker Die. Here’s what they look like:
For my first project, I stamped the images on some smooth white card stock and colored them in with my alcohol markers. I die-cut the images using the Stylish Stockings die set. I die-cut another piece of white card stock using a square die from my stash to create the windows for my card. I embellished the stocking with Stardust Stickles and set them aside to dry.
I die-cut the Merry and Bright sentiment using the Holiday Greetings Die set, featured on the first day of the reveals. Here’s my card:
I absolutely ADORE the images on the stockings! I can’t even pick a favorite because they are all so cute! This stamp set is a must-have for your holiday cards. Here’s another look:
For my second project I used the Ornament Shaker Die with some silver glittered card stock. I used the double-sided adhesive foam to create my shaker well and used some sequins from my stash. I die-cut the top piece of the ornament with gold glittered card stock and used a bow punch from my stash. I also die-cut some pine boughs with white card stock to decorate my ornament.
To finish my card design, I die-cut the “Happy Holidays” sentiment using the Holiday Greetings die set and adhered these pieces on my card.
This Ornament shaker die is another must-have for sure! Wouldn’t you just love receiving a holiday card with this shaker ornament?
Which one is your favorite from today’s reveals? I would love to know.
