Congrats to Glenda (must love cats), our newest Featured Stamper! She does some amazing stitching on her cards! I chose THIS to case. I kept the snowflake theme & the neutral color, but I heat embossed & die cut instead of sewing & I added more layers.
After gold embossing the Christmas Tune, it was die cut w/ the matching die along w/ the brushed gold layer behind it. The top bg was a little tricky since itÂ’s 3 layers & the top 2 are divided in 3. I first cut the cream layer, divided it but pushed the layers together to gold emboss the different Snowflakes on top & cut the bottom using the Leafy Edged Border die. I attached 3 gold layers behind them & carefully lined up the bottom & cut again. The largest faintly patterned dp layer was cut to match the bottom curve.
I used a different Leafy Edge Border to cut the cream colored border running under the greeting then stacked the gold embossed Snowflakes in the lower right. The top 2 snowflakes were fussy cut & each flake is elevated just a little from the one underneath. So it has a bit of dimension but is still, definitely mailable.
Congrats again, Glenda! Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff
