It's the final day of the STAMPlorations Christmas Release, and today we're focusing on the CUTplorations Doodled Christmas Candles Coverplate, Christmas Blessings and Making Spirits Bright dies.
For my first card I cut the phrase out of mirri card and used bright colours for my Layered Lights
A fussy-cut poinsettia and a black frame for the Christmas Blessings die.
My original idea with this next card was to score the lines then sponge the colours, but I wasn't happy with the effect, so I cut another plate from white paper, knocked all the bits out then overlaid it. Much better!
This next one looks clean and simple, but it actually took quite a while to trim all the pieces away!
