Die-cut Christmas card "Christmas waves a wand...."

Hello everyone!

It's Yvonne here today...
I love this time of year....putting up the Christmas tree (and yes... each and every year it's a struggle to find and put the right branches onto our artificial tree! lol), decorating our home and putting up lots and lots of twinkling lights in the garden.
Christmas simply brings that close family feeling and I can't wait to host two days of Christmas diners at our home this year!

Today I made you all a traditional looking Christmas card using only one set of die-cutting templates and one of the latest stamps by Quietfire: Christmas waves a magic wand.
The sentiment describes my Christmas mood so well!

For the cardbase I used a white card size 5 3/8"x 6 1/2".
Layer with kraft cardstock and patterned paper.
Die-cut Decorative Accents Labels 40 #4 (with #1 being the smallest die-template) and stencil with Vintage Photo Distress ink (using a ink blending tool).
Stamp the Quietfire sentuiment upon white cardstock and die-cut using template #3.
Glue die-cuts onto the card base using 3D foam squares for a beautiful 3D effect.
Embellish the card and...voila....

 

Used materials:

• Quietfire Design: Christmas waves a magic wand (#5713)
• Spellbinders: S4-466 Decorative Accents Labels 40
• Black Archival ink
• Distress inkpad Vintage Photo + Ink blending tool
• cardstock: white and kraft
• Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: 3D foam squares
• self-adhesive pearls, a satin bow and mulberry flowers, leaves and stamens.

Wishing you all lots and lots of fun preparing for Christmas!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,
Yvonne
