Wonderful Christmas

Hello there, Michelle here and today I have a card to share using the Wonderful Stamp & Cut along with the Bird Words stamp set. I wanted to create a quick and simple Christmas card that I thought would be good for mass producing.

I started off by cutting a piece of white cardstock using one of the Rectangle Infinity Dies. I took the accompanying word stamps from the Wonderful Stamp & Cut stamp set and stamped these on to the panel using Intense Black Ink. I then die cut the wonderful die three times from red cardstock. I layered these up using liquid glue.

I took the little holly image from the Bird Words stamp set and stamped this around the sentiment using Fresh Lawn Mid-Tone Shadow Ink. I then stamped the berries using Red Royal Mid-Tone Shadow Ink. I adhered the panel on to a red A2 card base with foam tape. I added the wonderful die-cut word on top with liquid glue. To finish off, I added red Stickles to the berries for some added sparkle.

I think this would be a good card to mass produce as you could stamp the sentiments in one go, if using a stamping a tool. The holly and berries would then be simple to stamp on top. For an even quicker card, you could just use one layer of the word die-cut too. Thanks so much for popping by today. I hope you have a great day!
