Warm Holiday Wishes
By Carol McFarland

Hello friends! I am back with a Christmas card using some newer Poppystamps dies! This is a repetitive pattern technique using our 2808 Nordic Drop Ornament dies. The possibilities are endless just by changing the colors used. I went for bold colors but you could use traditional Christmas colors or pastels, patterns made with stamping or patterned papers.

Here’s another look at the details of these beautiful ornaments. Notice all of the lines and dots that add pattern to them? So pretty, right? The cutouts let you see the color of the pieces behind the one on top. More color shows through and adds yet another pattern to the die cuts. I love the sparkly beads hanging off the bottom or the ornaments so I used silver glitter card stock to cut them out, as well as the hangers. Want to know a secret? The “gems” on the card front are the dots cut out when I die cut the top scalloped piece of each ornament.

I took a closeup shot of the ornaments and the sentiment, 2807 Warm Wishes Fluffy Script with its raised effect from the mat that sits under it.

Here you can see an angled look at the sentiment and ornament layers. I just think these ornaments would look great on a white or silver tree. You could make them, tie ribbon through the hanger, and hang them on a table top tree!

I hope you are inspired to use these ornaments to make cards, tree ornaments, or even gift tags for your home this holiday season. These two die sets are among the newest products at Poppystamps.

Thanks for stopping by today!
