For this card I used the NEW StampTV Set “Merry Little Christmas” which is 2 sets of stamps…you get double the fun (along with cardstock & embellies). I chose a cream, glittery navy & gold theme for the elegant religious stamps. I used a PTI die that cuts 3 squares at a time out evenly and then stamped the scene inside each & embossed in gold. (note: some embossed areas look clear but its the stickles on top of the ep & photographed weirdly lol) Then I used my gold leaf pen to draw 2 lines with my ruler and dots and topped it with a gold bow. The sentiment was embossed in gold as well.
**The Gold Leaf pen I have used on my projects, which is my FAVE, is by DecoColor Liquid Gold with a fine tip.**
This card uses the Free-with-3 set “Holiday Tags" set…so if you buy ANY 3 stamp sets from Gina K you get this set for FREE!! Yep my mind was on another weird kick and I used a tag sentiment in a different way LOL! The sentiment is embossed in gold on the trunk of the Christmas tree…yup it is! The Christmas tree is made ENTIRELY of one corner die cut (die by La La Land Crafts) many times. Then I had fun decorating it with my gold leaf pen, gold bella baubles, bakers twine and red dots made with a hole punch. The trunk is a SBs die as well and the sentiment was embossed in gold and then I traced the die cut with my gold leaf pen. I accented the corners with more corner die cuts and added a bella bauble to each. A bit of inking and stamping around the edges and some scrap holiday paper finish this card off…it was sooooooooooo much FUN to make! Hope it makes you look at your dies a bit differently now!
The last card uses the StampTV “Merry Little Christmas” set again! I used a fun combo of red, white and aqua for a wintry scene. I stamped the main image with aqua ink and filled in with Stickles. The papers are from MME “Winter Wonderland” and I used a Memory Box die cut for the swirlies…reminded me of swirling snow a bit. The cardstock is all Gina K Luxury…such a great weight to use!!
