Around the World with the Global Team

Good morning friends! Today we're bringing you some gorgeous crafty inspiration from our Global Team, with a focus on some of our recent holiday release products!

First up, Santa makes an appearance with this festive card by Lisa! She used the Snowflake Pattern Hot Foil Plate to dry emboss that bold pattern into a panel of Cherry cardstock. Then she created a background for her Santa using a vellum ornament die-cut from the Bulb Ornament Infinity Dies. Finally she created Santa with a variety of cardstocks, some subtle ink blending, and the Santa Gift Tag Fancy Die and finished it with a sentiment from Winter Wishes!

Erica created this cheery Christmas card using the adorable Cozy Penguin! She ink blended a phenomenal Northern Lights sky and added some White Pearl Paste to her snowy scene!

Take time to sip a yummy holiday drink and really appreciate all the details in Jen's fun card! She used the Snowflake Pattern Stencil to ink blend a soft blue onto her panel and then added a little Hero Paste on top for more texture. She stamped the Holiday Foliage Messages onto her (Light and) Mug Tag Fancy Die and then Copic colored the whipped cream topping. Finally she layered everything together with some colored cardstock frames and topped it with lots of sparkly gems!

Michelle created this rainbow beauty using the Ornaments Grid Stencil. She blended a rainbow of colors across the stencil changing colors halfway through the ornaments and alternating the strength of the colors for a really neat fade effect. Then she filled up those leftover white spaces with lots of small images from the Twelve Days of Christmas set! Are you humming the song yet?

Finally, Anna created a variety of personalized photo Christmas cards with our Hot Foil Plates and lots of shimmery, glimmery foil! She used the Snowflake Pattern, Holly, and Ornament Border Hot Foil Plates with lots of festive cardstock frames die-cut with the Rectangle Infinity Dies and paired them with family photos before adding a few holiday sentiments!

We hope our Global Team has inspired you with their creations and we look forward to sharing more of their fantastic work with you soon. Thanks so much for visiting and have a great week!
