12 Weeks of Christmas Week #8 (Part 1) Creating a Card with Sweetest Star
December 03, 2024
We're beginning the 12 Weeks of Christmas Week #8 (Part 1) Creatng a Card with Sweetest Star. The Sweetest Star bundle contains a cute "cookie" set of stamps with the corresponding punch!
& here's our card for today...
In keeping with simple elements we start with a red card base layered with a Lemon Lime Twist to coordinate with the crisscross designer paper color (Take a Bow DSP).
The Christmas tree is 3 layers using the Merriest Tree dies (what will I do without this awesome set of dies whe it retires!)--Garden Green, Granny Apple Green and topped with White Glimmer paper.
The Santa is stamped and die cut---then colored with our Blends---quick & easy ---then punched out and attached with dimensionals.
The greeting in the stamp set is stamped in Real Red on White CS and die cut with the 2" Stylish circle. We underlined "bright" with 3 red & white peppermint dots that perfectly coordiate with the cookie theme.
Stop back by Thursday to see our last use of this bundle
