Most wonderful time

Hello crafty friends, it's Kerstin here!

it's release week and I have an elegant christmas card to share. I played with some of the new products that are available friday 19th. 

Let's have a look!

 

 

 

Usually I'm using green and red for my christmas cards. But this time I wanted to use non traditional neutral colors to create something more classy. 

  

 

• stamp the sentiment in the middle of the panel
• cut out the panel with one of the scalloped rectangles
• die cut a lot of stars in different shapes, sizes and colors (you might not see it but the black stars are from black glitter cardstock)
• adhere the stars lose around the sentiment
• adhere the panel to your card

 

   

Available november 19th

Most wonderful time

Cool Cuts Stars

Cool Cuts Scalloped Rectangles

 

We love to see your creations. Please use the hashtag #createasmilestamps when you're sharing your projects on instagram.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,
Kerstin
