Christmas Friends (New Products)

Hello everyone, Joni here sharing the new Christmas Friends stamp set and Christmas Friends Coordinating Dies. I also used the new fun Stitched Stars Dies.

To begin my card I first distressed my card base with Memento Danube Blue Dye Ink, then I used the large star die from the Stitched Stars Dies to die-cut a window from my panel to create a fun star shaker card.

Next, I stamped the front of the blue distressed panel and with snowflakes images from the new Christmas Friends stamp set. The bigger snowflake image is from the new Holiday Greetings stamp set (a free stamp set if you purchase $100 or more or will be available in 2017). Then I distressed another panel in yellow this will go behind the blue panel to reveal the new fun sentiment “warm holiday wishes” from Christmas Friends stamp set. The “sending you” sentiment and “pine needles” image are also from the new Holiday Greetings stamp set.

In this next image I just I want to show you how I position each piece to create my shaker. This time I die-cut the fun foam using the Stitched Stars Dies. Normally I would use a foam tape, but the fun foam saves you so much time.

The sequins I used are the new Holiday Shimmer Sequins Mix. There are some snowflakes in this mix, which really adds a nice little touch. To finalize this card, I added some Diamond Stickles at the bottom for a little shimmer.

Finally, I added the cute children, birds, and present images from new Christmas Friends stamp set and Christmas Friends Coordinating Dies to finish off the card.

Thank you so much for joining me today, I hope you liked it! Have a wonderful day!
