Christmas - Right as Rain

Lawn Fawn | Build-A-Snowman

Hello! Today I am sharing a Christmas card featuring the Lawn Fawn Build-A-Snowman die set from their Fall/Winter 2022 Release. I am noticing that I have started crafting more wintery-themed cards as the days have gotten darker and the temps cooler!

I began my adding Lawn Fawn White Stencil Paste through the Snowy Sky stencil on to paper from a winter-themed pad (because I liked the particular shade of blue). I was concerned that the paste would be too much for the paper and found myself pleased that the paste went on smoothly and dried without any issues.
The background was added to a 5-1/2 inch square card base. I needed the extra horizontal space to give the snowman and snowwoman ample room.
I cut the snowbank with a die in the Simple Stitched Hillside Borders set from glitter cardstock.
I cut the snowmen with the Build-A-Snowman set from colored, white, Light Brown Woodgrain, and Black Licorice cardstock and assembled the pieces.
I stamped the Simply Winter Sentiments in black on teal cardstock and cut it with a die in the Everyday Sentiment Banners set.
I embellished with snowflakes cut from glitter cardstock with the Mini Snowflakes set.

Spellbinders | November 2022 Large Die of the Month

Hello and happy November! Today, I am sharing a slimline holiday card created with the Spellbinders November 2022 Large Die of the Month “Stylized Floral Kaleidoscope Slimline.” I used the kaleidoscope flowers for a winter-themed card.

The Large Die of the Month set also includes a birthday sentiment and leaf dies.

With the Large Die of the Month, I cut the card elements from Brushed Silver, Snowdrift, and several shades of blue. I used a die to cut a circle from navy cardstock which I placed behind the floral kaleidoscope pieces.
I added the assembly to a white-textured, slimline card base.
I foiled a sentiment in Silver on Snowdrift with the Glitter Wishes set and cut it with the coordinating die.
I embellished with snowflakes cut from white glitter foam with the Chill Bear, Holiday Decorations, and Let it Snowman sets.
