Glitter Me Silly

Hello –  I’m over on the Avery Elle Blog today with a card created with the Peaceful Pines stamps and dies.  This is a great set for whipping up a simple yet elegant card in no time at all which is what we all need at this time of year!

I stared with a 4-bar sized card base in red and used the rectangle die from Focal Point Stripes to cut an aperture on the front.  I glued a white piece of card behind this and then stamped the pine branches in Jungle pigment ink.

Next I die cut the word Merry 3 times from the piece of card I cut from the card base, stacked them up and spritzed them with a little shimmer spray.

To finish I dug out my red and gold Stickles glitter glue and ran a gold edge around the window (totally stolen from Julie Ebersole!!) and some red dots to the berries.

Hey there, here with a card I created using the gorgeous new Grateful stamp set and co-ordinating dies from Avery Elle.  This is only a small set (3×4 “) but it certainly packs a punch and you can create so may different looks.  I stamped the oak leaves a few times with Avery Elle Truffle dye ink so I could use some warm, fall colours from my Copics collection.  By using a brown ink rather than a black or grey, it helps to give an overall Autumnal tone to the colour scheme.

To bring everything together I arranged the leaves into a kind of swag or wreath on the front of the panel and then stamped the “thankful” sentiment from the set (SO happy that this sentiment has a co-ordinating die) and die cut it and finished off with a small banner with the “for you” stamped on to it.
