Tidings & Trimmings

Hey Everyone

I think it’s time to start on Christmas projects. I’ve been hanging to play with one of my new bundles – Tidings & Trimmings Bundle. In this bundle there’s a fabulous stamp set with various images and sentiments that really appealed to me.

There are so many dies in this bundle that layer really well together. There’s also a good mix of stars and leafy die cuts that, if I could, I would’ve tried to fit them all on this card.

To start this card I took a Blending Brush and Fresh Freesia Ink and added some colour to the background. I cut the various stars with Fresh Freesia and Smoky Slate Cardstock. I took a leafy die and cut a Smoky Slate leaf die cut.

I then stamped the stocking image from the Tidings & Trimmings Stamp Set and inked it up with Black Memento Ink. I added some colour to the stocking with the Fresh Freesia Blends. I stamped the sentiment in Black Memento Ink and used a Layering Circles Die to cut it out.

I took three Silver Metallic Pearls and placed them on my card around the collection of images. To add a little something extra, I cut a piece of Metallic Mesh Ribbon and added it under the sentiment. It didn’t show up very well in the photo, but it’s there.

Pretty happy with myself that I’ve now made a start for the festive season!

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
