Below you will find the cards I created for the release with details on the products I used, as well as the link to your next destination on today's hop!
To create my first project, I used the most adorable tree and sentiment from Christmas Scribbles stamp set, Christmas Scribbles die set, as well as the car image from the Tis the Season stamp set and the Tis the Season die set. These sets are all illustrated by Julie Ebersole, and are soooooo fun!!
Using scissors, I cut a snowy rolling hill and road surface from white and grey card stock. I stamped and die cut the images from white card stock, and colored the images with markers. I used foam adhesive to pop up the car and the top of two of the trees. Finally, I used my handy dandy tracing wheel to create faux stitch lines at the top edges of the snowy hill, road surface, and along the path of the car's wheels.
I created a second project using Autumn Acorns stamp set and die cut leaves from the beautiful Gourd-Jus die set. I stamped the table setting image (over and over to create a subtle background image) in Pumice Stone Distress Ink on Neenah Desert Storm colored card stock. I added leaves die cut from beautiful glitter paper, and dressed them up with a mother of pearl button with a hemp twine bow.
Ooooh la la!! Looks like an invitation to a dinner I wouldn't want to miss!
