My first card features the Jolly Holly Background Stamp, another great stamp for mass producing Christmas Cards. First I stamped the background in Olive Ink. Then I used the clear stamps in the set to stamp the leaves and berries. For the holly leaves the outline is stamped in Olive Ink, the leaves with Cilantro Ink, and the veins with Sweet Basil Ink. The berries are stamped with the new Watermelon Ink.
The sentiment is from the new Handlettered Holiday 2 Stamp Set and die cut with the Handlettered Holiday 2 Dies. The frame is created with Stitched Oval Stacklets and the Inside Scallop Oval Stacklets. I backed the frame with vellum and added a small embellishment at the top with the Little Bits - Holiday Bloomers.
The background on my second card is stamped with the new Boughs & Berries Background Stamp on Salt Water Taffy with the new Poblano Pepper Ink. I love the new Poblano Pepper Ink and Cardstock! Such a great color!
The sled is created with the new Vintage Sled Die and the Winter Greens Die. The bow is die cut from Designer Felt. The ice skates are die cut with the Little Bits - Ice Skates Die. The sentiment is included in the new Mini Strips - Holiday Stamp Set and die cut with the Mini Strips Die.
