Christmas Cheer

Hi Crafters,

I'm still making Christmas cards but I can see the end of the tunnel now and only have a few more left to create.
I'd like to share three cards that I've made using this great new die that I purchased from Craft Stash.
I love this die and it's going to be so useful for future Christmas's too.



Recipe
Die - Christmas Chalkboard Die
Papers - Papermania Christmas Time Pad
Corner Die - Crafters Companion

I've made these and also some where I have filled in the tree and 'Christmas' cut outs with contrasting coloured card for a different look.

As the name of this die is 'Christmas Chalkboard' I thought I would make one of those too as a Christmas plaque ornament.


I've painted the wooden plaque with black acrylic paint, when dry I swiped white ink across the surface and smudged it to look like chalk. I then attached the white card stock die cut, a few holly leaves and pearl berries. The edge of the plaque is covered in red velvet ribbon and the green grosgrain ribbon for the hanging loop.
