Yay!! It’s the weekend! Welcome back to the SNS blog. I recently purchased some of the October MFT Release and was super excited to play with it. Christmas card making is in full swing around here and this release is going to make it super fun and easy!
I was so excited about getting the new Filled With Joy Stamp set along with its Co-ordinating Dies!! This is a great, versatile set. I also got the older Scenic Snow Globe Die Set (also from MFT) which is an adorable scene builder set. These two sets work beautifully together!
I started by doing some ink blending using Tumbled Glass and Broken China Distress Oxide inks onto white cardstock. I trimmed the panel down using a stitched rectangle die from Lawn Fawn. I die cut the large “Joy” die from the Filled with Joy Dies out of red cardstock and also out of craft foam. I love the solid dimension craft foam gives! I used a variety of cardstock scraps to assemble the little house scene. I love die sets like these although some of the pieces are quite tiny and a wee difficult to adhere.
I added a few puff details on the roof of the house and trees using a snow marker from Marvy Uchida . I also used craft foam to adhere the house and trees so the dimension was the same as the sentiment. It was also fun to add Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the windows and ornaments on the trees!
I used the snowflake die from the Filled With Joy die set along with some glitter cardstock for a bit of added sparkle. The remainder of the sentiment was stamped with Versamark ink onto vellum and heat embossed in white. I used a sentiment banner die to trim that out. I adhered the focal panel and the vellum sentiment strip with Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.
And that, my friends, is my finished card! I hope you enjoyed and got some Christmas inspiration!!
See you soon!!
