It is also possible to just use the outer dies to create solid baubles.
A Christmas card this week, it seems I'm a little hooked on untraditional colours right now.
I double matted the card base and placed a stamped sentiment onto white card.
I then cut/embossed two designs of the round ornament, strung them with twine
that I tucked behind the white card front.
These are so pretty! You could use a variety of the ornament shapes to make your own gift tags.
They also look amazing cut from Craft Foils.
Have a wonderful weekend, I'm going to stop thinking about Christmas for a little bit soon!
Take care friends.

Morning Christine
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely card and I am getting very tempted by these dies! I currently have one of the older larger heirloom die sets and these smaller sets look very versatile.

Gorgeous card Christine, these dies give a lovely effect, hugs Carole Z X
ReplyDeleteGreat card-you have given me inspiration for a friends christmas card as she loves purple/lilac.

This set is gorgeous Christine, I love the filigree insert for them, xxxx
ReplyDeleteMorning Christine, Coming from a girlie (me) who doesn't even want to think about the 'C' word !!, these dies are stunning, I'm so loving the ornate 'insides', you could use the outside die with stamps and also with the inners, fabulous. These would be ideal for 'batch making' cards. I already have the bigger dies, but these are really lovely.
ReplyDeleteLots of love from Patricia xx
Hi Christine,
ReplyDeleteYour card today is lovely,the dies look like a must have,as you say they would make great tags too.
Thank you for the tutorial.
I hope you have a good day. x.
A lovely set of dies Christine, the grandchildren could have lots of fun making cards with these. Have the bigger dies, but these are certainly ones for the wish list. So pleased that Elliott is settling in to college life. Anne x

ReplyDeleteA lovely CAS card, very classy looking. I think the filigree sets the dies off a treat.
Enjoy your day.

Hi Christine. I loved the sweet little gift box yesterday and am looking forward to seeing what you do with your Advent boxes this year as I am hoping to have a go at them and would love some ideas : )
ReplyDeleteThe baubles are beautiful and you can do so much with them can't you. Love your Christmas card in the pretty colours and clean and simple style.
Think, and share Christmas as much as you like. I love seeing all that you do, you are so inspiring,thank you :)
I hope Elliott isn't too tired, I bet you are missing him aren't you! Have a good weekend. Take care.
Very pretty baubles, and they look great on this card.

Hi Christine, So pretty and clean looking love them . love Jean Z xxx
ReplyDeleteLovely simple look to this card, great colours. These are very dainty little baubles with many possibilities.
ReplyDeleteI've got a little stock of Christmas cards Christine, and the sun is so lovely at the moment it would be a crime not to be out in it.
ReplyDeleteHello Christine. A great simple card that's really effective and wouldn't take too long. I can see a batch of these leaving for friends overseas as the postage probably isn't too heavy either. xxMargaretxx
ReplyDeleteHi Christine
ReplyDeleteGreat little card today. Ideal if you are batch making cards.
Enjoy your day

love these dies .great card ,Laura O
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card, I really wish I hadn't promised myself I wouldn't buy any more Christmas stamps or dies!
ReplyDeleteGood morning Christine,
ReplyDeleteSuch a fab simple yet effective card, I love it, it has the appearance of a high end Department Store range! I just can't get motivated into making Christmas cards, although I did notice this week that our local supermarkets are selling the Christmas chocolate and sweets and they were selling mince pies at the end of August, so I guess I won't be long before we have the carols piped into the shops!
I so hope that Elliott enjoys college, I am sure it feels a little empty around the place while he is there, I also hope that get keeps going with his creativity, I think you may have a budding 'Tim Holtz' there! Haha
Big hugs,
Sandra xxx
