Today i have another style of Christmas card to share with all of you using Becca Feeken's newest snowflake die set from "A Charming Christmas". And... I wanted to use a few of my old dies to mix in with it just to play around. And this is what i came up with. Since all the dies have so much detail in them i chose simple papers in blues and silvers and then set to work to cut the pieces out and layer them. It was really fun and in the end the snowflake die really popped in the center of the card.
Here is the set and you can see all the gorgeous details in each of the pieces. You can get it
on the Spellbinders website here <<< or in the UK you can get it from the
Some of my favorite dies to mix in are the hemstitch series of dies and as you can see i used the square in silver and the circle in the blue to make the silver snowflakes pop more. The darker blue die set is the Flourished Square from the Romancing the Swirl Set. I love the lacy effect that it has and it complimented the Hemstitch dies perfectly and set the perfect stage for a layered snowflake.
So have fun this holiday season and get out your favorite dies from Becca and mix them up a bit to create beautiful cards for your family and friends this year. I am getting a huge stock pile to send this year so far and using all the dies from " A Charming Christmas" so don't wait --and get your order in so that you can be ready to wow everyone too.
Enjoy the weekend and thank you for stopping by today

ReplyDeleteHi, Teresa,
ReplyDeleteThis is exciting because I have these dies. Looking closely, I realize that you have two cards here-one with silver and the other in gold. I must admit, mirror paper really catches my eye but I have not heard of Ruby Rocket. Who is your source?
Thank you so much for consistently gifting us with beautiful inspiration!
Blessings, Sandy
