Red and White Christmas

Christmas, Flowers

Lucky, Lucky Me…..another day to play and this is what I made.  I love it.  I am having such fun with my new dies.  Let me start with the Diamond Knit #951.  I taped it to the bottom of the red layer and cut.  My card is 6×6, and it went across the piece.  Doesn't this make a pretty border?  I think it does. 

Let's see…what did I use next?  The Crochet Corner #957, I cut it 4 times and then glued it to another layer of red.  Pretty fancy I'd say!

Next I cut the Small Blooming Poinsettia #902 and I layered and shaped the tiny petals.  If you look at the sentiment, I again cut the Small Blooming Poinsettia and used the smaller petals to make the even smaller poinsettia.  Next I  stamped, using the "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" cling stamp #CS3058.  I layered it and glued it to the card, along with the poinsettias. 

The inside was easy, I just reversed the colors and again die cut the Diamond Knit.  This time I used the Angel Corner #955 as my accent piece.  I left lots of room for a nice note, or if I want, I can later add a sentiment.

  84. That Diamond Knit die looks very useful. And the poinsettia is very pretty and not so big as some. So it will fit more places.

  87. I love making cards with knit-look touches and the diamond knit die is perfect! Thank you for sharing your beautiful card.

  90. Red and white are great colors for the knit and crochet dies in this card. Great card for someone who is a needlework crafter.

  99. Red and white and red and craft card are my chosen colours for this Christma. The crochet corner card is lovely, a complicated looking card that could easily be mass produced 🙂

  100. Oh my goodness! I never would have thought to use four corners to form a circle! Is that cool or what? And you used the poinsettia as well! Great card!

  106. Fabulous, I love the way you have achieved such a lovely card using just red and white, its beautiful

  107. WOW lovely card, I love the way you have used the borders and corners, they work so well together

  111. I like how the crochet corners were used to a create a circular doily and very much suiting the crossed knit border

  114. Hi Mary Mac,
    Now that’s my kind of knitting – on paper! Seriously, what a lovely border pattern. It’s so festive in red and white! Thanks for sharing!

  117. Love the Diamond Knit. It reminds me of colorwork in Fair Isle (yes, I’m a knitter). It’s really stunning in red and white for Christmas cards.

  119. In answer to your questions, oh boy would I ever!!!!! The die is so versatile. I could use it all year long.!!

  128. Oh I love how you made your circle from the corner dies. I look at corner dies and think no, I don’t do corners, but you have started me thinking in all sorts of new die-rections. Ha,ha. Diamond knit is so lovely. Am liking these punch style dies.

  131. Love this red and white design – reminds me of a Scandinavian Christmas card! The crochet corner to create a circle is such a great idea! The Diamond Knit die creates such a simple border as an accent!
