When I saw the Fusion sketch, I knew I wanted to include a fancy edge, cut with an Eden Die. This is a fabulous die set that I’ve used many times, and it’s one of the Weekly Deals right now, but the discounted offer ends tomorrow, Thursday the 22nd. You can see the entire set in my Product List below, and clicking on it will take you to my store for ordering.
I used this die by lining it on the edge of Gingham Cottage Designer Paper, 2″ X 5 1/2″, and rolling it through my Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine.
Brick wall and poinsettias
After die-cutting, I glued this piece to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Prior to gluing, the card base was embossed with the Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder.
Next, I fussy cut the poinsettias from Boughs Of Holly Designer Paper, and attached it with Dimensionals.
Merry Christmas is from the Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set, stamped in Evening Evergreen Ink on Basic White Cardstock. I made two cuts with the smallest Deckled Rectangles Die to make the label the desired size, and attached it with Dimensionals.
I was inspired by Fusion.
