Christmas/Winter Cards on Die Cut Divas Encore

 Hello,

It's my turn to share another Christmas/Winter card on Die Cut Divas.  No particular sentiment on my card front, so I could decide if I want to make it a holiday card or just a Winter hello later when I use it.

From my Waffle Flower stash, I used these to create my card:

Waffle Flower Postage Collage Snowman Stencil

Waffle Flower Postage Collage Clear Stamp

Waffle Flower Postage Collage Mini Seal Die

Waffle Flower Postage Collage Die

Waffle Flower is the sponsor for Die Cut Divas' November challenge.  They are giving a $20 gift code to their online store.  

So pull out your favorite stamps and/or dies to make a Christmas or Winter theme card and play along.  Hop over to Die Cut Divas to link up. If you're on social media, use hashtag #diecutdivaschallengeblog so we won't miss seeing your creation.

Other supplies I used on my card includes:

Ranger Distress Inks (Shabby Shutter, Wild honey, Ripe Persimmon, Tumbled Glass, Saltwater Taffy, Mustard Seed, Victorian Velvet, Seedless Preserves, Scorched Timber)

Hero Arts Shadow Ink (Soft Granite)

White Gel pen

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great start of the holiday season!!

Christmas/Winter cards on Die Cut Divas

 Happy December 1st!!

Are you ready, for a new challenge on Die Cut Divas? 😁  This month's challenge theme is: Christmas/Winter.  So either Christmas or Winter cards/projects are welcome.  Just remember to use die cuts or embossing folder to qualify for the prize draw.

I created a couple of cards today.  

For this first one, I used several Waffle Flower's stamp, die and stencil sets to created my card.  These are:

Waffle Flower Postage collage Stamp Set

Waffle Flower Poinsettia Background Stencil

Waffle Flower Postage Collage Snowman Stencil

Waffle Flower Postage Collage Coloring Stencil

Waffle Flower Postage Collage Mini Seals Die

Waffle Flower Postage Collage Die

Waffle Flower A2 Lacy Layers Die

Since I got the goodies out, why not make another?

For this second one, I also used Waffle Flower Poinsettia Background Stencil, Waffle Flower A2 Lacy Layers Die, and I used negative pieces from the Waffle Flower Slimline Christmas Tree Die.

I ink blended the tree shape in ombre fashion, and spritzed with Antique Linen Distress Spritz.  After I adhered the shape and the sentiment banner to the card front, I added some art gem to only one side of tree, to get away from the usual way to decor a tree  (randomly or in inverted arches shape).  I think this will give my card a bit of uniqueness.

Waffle Flower is our sponsor this month on Die Cut Divas, they are giving a $15 gift code to use on their online store as the challenge prize.

Other supplies I used on my cards include:

Spellbinders Make It Merry Die Set

Ranger Distress Ink (Picked Raspberry, Vintage Photo, Evergreen Bough)

Ranger Distress Spritz (Antique Linen)

Memento Dye Ink (Tuxedo Black)

Altenew Shimmer Relief Paste (Enchanted Gold)

Altenew Fresh Ink ( Sunray, Chamomile, Aloe Vera, Matcha Tea, Swamp Green, Oak Moss)

Stamperia Contour (Old Gold)
