By the Fireside – Traditional Christmas

Hello! I am sharing a traditional Christmas card, created with a combination of Memory Box and Poppystamps supplies, for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

By the Fireside - Traditional Christmas

  • I die cut the various pieces to create the scene.
  • The Poppystamps Classic Brick Fireplace was modified – I created a separate mantel top and backed the opening with a dry-embossed rectangle.
  • I added ornaments to the tree by using a die I have that creates a variety of smaller circles.
  • The Tim Holtz Festive Overlay sentiment fit perfectly over the mantle.
  • In order to accommodate so many elements, this card is sized 6″ square.

Supplies: Most of the die sets are now retired. I’ve had them for several years. Poppystamps Patient Pup; Poppystamps Classic Brick Fireplace; Memory Box Frosted Christmas Tree
The stockings and fire set are also from Poppystamps, but I don’t know their specific product names.
