Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Christmas, Flowers

Today, I'm sharing another card as part of the "blog blitz" celebrating the brand-new Poppystamps collection of 74 dies and 20 cling stamps.

On my CAS holiday card in traditional colors, I combined the small poinsettia die with the cursive Merry die. For the two smaller flowers, I simply left off the largest, outermost flower – the die cuts the center, three flower layers, and a leaf. I cut the merry die several times in Parchment and once in Squash cardstock, then I adhered the layers together, in order to give more dimension to the sentiment. I use Ranger Glossy Accents – it dries fast and clear.

I'm giving away the cursive Merry die – to enter the giveaway, just leave me a comment. You have until September 20th to leave comments on the "blog blitz" posts for a chance to win.
