Merry Christmas Happy Holidays
My first two cards are a quick and easy two-for-one pair. I used sprays to quickly add color to a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of white cardstock and then I used the new Snowflake Pattern Cover die to cut the panel. I used foam tape to adhere the fall out snowflakes to another panel of white cardstock and then added a sentment.
Behind the die cut panel, I added a white panel of cardstock stamped with the Jingle Bells Script background stamp and then added a sentiment over top. So easy!
My third card features an images made with a new Letter Press and Foil Plate set and the BetterPress system from Spellbinders. I pressed the images in BetterPress inks and then used Copic markers to color them in. To finish, I stamped a small sentiment and glued the panel to a card base.

This month’s collection has everything you need to create lush tropical jungle scenes!
For this card, I created two identical leafy borders, one for the top and one for the bottom of the scene, by stamping the three foliage layering stamps in Fresh Lawn, Aquatic, and Ultra Pink Core inks. I die cut the borders and set them aside.
Next, I stamped the water image in Aquatic onto a panel of white cardstock. I cut the panel down to about 3.5″ x 5″ and then stamped the elephant silhouettes in Onyx pigment ink. I used foam tape to adhere the leafy borders to the panel and then trimmed the edges of the borders that were hanging off the sides of the panel.
To finish, I used more foam tape to adhere the stamped and die cut sentiment, glued the panel to the center of a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of Kiwi cardstock which I then glued to a top-folding card base.
Sending Special Birthday Wishes
My second card features other wonderful sets from the new release. I used Copic markers to color the birds of paradise and leaves, and then I adhered them to a background created with a new cling stamp. To finish, I added a stamped and die cut sentiment.
