Festive Garlands

I made a set of Christmas cards with a Sizzix/Tim Holtz die set Festive Garlands. They all have the same layout, the same inked background (Distress Oxide inks in Bundled Sage and Iced Spruce with few splatters of gold ink), the same sentiment (Finnish for 'Christmas Peace') and the same die cut bow (die cut with Vault Festive Wreath die by Sizzix/Tim Holtz). The only thing that changes between them is the die cut elements. I also added a bit of Distress Glitter in Rock Candy here and Nuvo Glitter Pen there. Very quick and easy to make!

Festive Wreath

I think I'm falling in love with diecutting! I had so much fun making this card and adding all the little details, it's so different from colouring in a stamped image. The die set I used for this is by Sizzix and Tim Holtz and it's called Vault Festive Wreath. I die cut the pieces out of either white cardstock or coloured cardstock and added a bit of colour to them with Distress Oxide inks. I also splattered a bit of white acrylic paint to the wreath itself and added shimmer and glitter to the elements with Nuvo Glitter pen and Distress Rock Candy Glitter. The sentiment says 'Christmas Greetings' in Finnish. I also used some white half pearls to embellish the card.
