Ho Ho Ho, Merry Everything

Here is another card I made recently with the abundant supply of alphabet letters I die cut the other day!

 

I die cut a series of letters out of Plaid DP and layered onto white cardstock for dimension. 

I used my new 'T square' ruler to align the letters, before affixing with foam tape to red background cardstock.  Gold Peel Off stickers were randomly added to the background, 'Merry Everything' sentiment stamped on 210gsm white cardstock, cut out and added to red background with foam tape.  The background was then affixed to a white A6 300gsm cardbase.

 

AND .... we have another 'dancing' Santa :) stamped on 210gsm white cardstock and hand coloured with Copics, fussy cut with scissors, highlighted with Dimensional paint, then affixed with a wobble (see video below).

 

 

I have really enjoyed making this selection of Christmas Cards, even though the lettering took way more time than I expected to LOL

Here are a few Christmas Cards I have made recently.

In a recent post, here, I shared that I needed some new Cuttlebug Plates as my old ones had cracked.

Well, I put the new plates to the test and they performed beautifully!

 

I made up two DL size cards for something different!  (which is two-thirds of an A4 sheet)

 

Card#1

 

I die cut a series of letters out of Plaid DP and layered onto white cardstock for dimension. 

 

I used my new 'T square' ruler to align the letters, before affixing with foam tape to red background cardstock.  Gold Peel Off stickers were randomly added to the background, along with a mulberry paper poinsettia.  The background was then affixed to a white DL size cardbase.

Card#2

Again, I used my new 'T square' ruler to align the letters, before affixing with foam tape -- oops, the 'a' has a bit of a 'lean' LOL.  Gold Peel Off stickers were randomly added to the red background cardstock, then affixed to a white DL size cardbase. 

 

 

 

 

AND .... we have a 'dancing' Santa :) stamped and hand coloured with Copics, fussy cut with scissors, highlighted with KindyGlitz, then affixed with a wobble (see video below).

 

 

Must go, I have more Christmas cards on my to do list!

 

Linking Card #1 with the following challenges:

Cardz4Guyz Challenge #362 - Holiday/Christmas Tag/Card

Linking Card #2 with the following challenges:

Sparkles Christmas Challenge #167 - Feature a Christmas Song or Carol - I am not so much into Christmas Carols, but I love Slade's 'Merry Christmas Everyone'  LOL  The song was released in 1973 and I play it nice and loud whenever I can :)

Cut It Up Challenge #319 - Use more than one die cut - well I think I got that one covered.  I confess, I didn't think making up the word Merry Christmas would be so fiddly, and take as long as it did!

ABC Christmas Challenge Y - Favourite Color - My most fave Christmas colour is Red combined with gold!
