I was excited to make a Christmas card, as soon as I returned from Thanksgiving vacation.
Christmas Tree
The new Majestic Mountain Dies were begging to be used, so I cut a tree from Garden Green Cardstock. Then, I wrapped the word “Merry” around the tree. “Merry” is from the Merry Christmas Die Set, cut from Real Red Cardstock.
The background is Crumb Cake Cardstock that I stenciled with Shimmer Detailed Laser-Cut DSP and Crumb Cake Ink, using a Sponge Dauber. I layered this on Garden Green Cardstock, on a Crumb Cake card base.
“Christmas” is from the Merry Christmas To All Stamp Set, stamped in Real Red Ink, and cut with a Stitched Rectangles Die.
My inspiration for today’s card was Freshly Made Sketches. Linda and I had the same idea; the scribble looking like “Merry.”
You’ll find the supplies in my Product List, except for the tree. It can be ordered Jan. 3rd, so put Majestic Mountain Dies #151608, on your “want list.”
Thank you for stopping by today!

Thank you, Glenda! I was playing around with the two die-cuts, and it just fell into place!

that.
