Merry Christmas!

Hi Bloggers.

I thought I'd post a Christmas Card today -

As soon as I saw the new Christmas Mini Striplet Dies from Sue Wilson, I just thought that they would look great on a 3 panel card.

For the background, I embossed a piece of Coconut White Card using the Creative Expressions Frosty Swirls Embossing Folder.

I cut just the outside die from the Snowflake Mini Striplet Die Set out of Blue Dusk Card 3 times. I then cut both dies from the set together out of Coconut White Card 3 times and glued the die cut sets together using Cosmic Shimmer Dries Clear Glue.

I cut a plain die from Sue's Classic Adorned Design Noble Die Set out of Coconut White Card. At the emboss stage, I added the Snowflake Flurry Mask. I inked through the die with Stonewashed Adirondack Dye Ink using a Smoothie. I cut a plain die from Sue's Lavish Accented Design Noble Die Set out of Blue Dusk Card to form a mat.

I cut Sue's Merry Christmas Die out of Blue Dusk Card and added a 3mm White Pearl and a 5mm White Pearl to the Snowflakes.

I tied a bow out of Blue White American Seam Binding. I cut a snowflake out of Blue Dusk Card using Sue's Snowflakes Die Set and added a 5mm White Pearl.

I assembled the card as shown adding some more 5mm White Pearls to the corners and piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler.

Thanks for stopping by.
