Hi Crafty Friends,
Since Tuesday 23rd September, Spellbinders have been revealing their 12 Days of Stitchmas Advent Calendar. This is an advent calendar that you open prior to December as it contains dies to help with making Christmas cards. I managed to pick one up recently, so I have been having fun pulling out the dies and making some cards.
This is the first one I made on the weekend using the dies from Day 2 - “Merry & Bright”. For most of my cards, I won’t be including stitching. A while back while looking for a Slimline die, I discovered this slimline panel all die cut and put together which I have been wanting to turn into a card. I added the paper background to the middle and added some maroon diagonal pieces to the borders. I then die cut ‘Merry’ and ‘Bright’ from both pink and maroon cardstock and offset the pink over the maroon and adhered to my card. I die cut the ampersand from maroon cardstock and added in the centre.
To finish off the front of the card, I added the gold foiled sentiment.
For the inside of my card, I added another gold foiled sentiment. I also added two ornaments which I believe is from Day 4.
