Welcome to a special Christmas Blog Hop with Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps! The Design Team will be sharing cards made with their favorite stamps.
Born This Day is one of my favorite Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Christmas sets. I colored the image in neutrals with Copics and used its matching die to cut it out.
I have layered it on the oval frame from the Decorative Frames Stamp Set that was cut out with its matching die from the Decorative Plaque Dies. I added another layer using a Spellbinders Oval Die. My dp is retired SU paper and a SU doily is beneath it all.
These next two cards are quite different and FAR from my usual style. I wanted to try to create a card that looked like stationary or an elegant boxed card. I used sentiments from several different snss sets to come up with this design~
I kept the red card super CAS with nothing more than all of the sentiments embossed in gold. For the blue card, it was too dark with just the silver embossing, so I trimmed down the sentiment panel and added a white and silver layer. My sentiments are from the following sets- Mod Ornaments, Vintage Ornaments, Christmas Joy, Christmas Morn, and Jesus is Born. Which one do you like better?
We hope you will join the fun and leave some love behind as you visit
