It's day 1 of My Creative Time's 60th Edition Sneak Peeks! We've got a very fun release to share with you this week, with lots of holiday inspiration! To start off our sneaks, we've got a gorgeous new stamp and die set called Fun Stitched Ornaments & More.
I made the base of my card very simple to showcase this beautiful set. I just adhered a piece of woodgrain patterned paper from the Simple Stories SN@P Basics collection to a piece of chocolate cardstock. One of my favorite dies in the Fun Stitched Ornaments & More set is the greenery die. I used it four times to make a little garland from which to hang my ornaments. I then die cut the ornaments, using the three ornament dies. This set comes with some darling accent stamps. I used all of them to decorate my first three ornaments, heat embossing them with white embossing powder. I then inked up all of the ornaments with Tim Holtz Distress Inks (you can see the exact colors I used in my links below). I just love all of the detail dies included in this set! The silver ornament hangers and white bows accent the ornaments so nicely! Lastly, I added "merry Christmas," using dies from the previously released Holiday Tags set.
