The 'Christmas' die cut is left over from this card using the Retro Merry Christmas Thinlits die set. All I had to do was cut the included 'Merry' out of Metallic Kraft Stock.
I colored a scrap of Distress Mixed Media Heavystock with Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide to cut greens from the Funky Festive set and added a few Holiday greens I had on my worktop. The bow (Funky Festive) was also cut from metallic card.
The black card was stamped with the Nordic stamp (Plaid & Nordic) using more Cracked Pistachio oxide ink. I tap the stamp with the ink pad and spritz the stamp lightly with water before making the impression. This was mounted on a panel of Metallic silver and all the die cuts were adhered with Distress Collage Medium Matte.
I'll have a few more cards to share with you, and then I will take a few weeks off from blogging to celebrate Christmas with my family
Merry Christmas!
