Whimsy Stamps - Mica Forest Majesty!

 Hello everyone!

Happy Thanks giving to all friends of Dies To Die For who are Stateside!

It's Sue here today!
I recently revisited a card design I did earlier this year because I liked it so much!  I previously made it using non traditional colours  and have to say it has remained a 2021 favourite!  (I'll pop a link to it at the end of this post so you can see it)!

I decided to make it again in a more classically Christmas way!
In fact - I liked it so much I made two!

I used Mica flakes rubbed onto double sided adhesive sheets and then die cut to create a set of deer and trees and divided them between two cards.

I do rather like the brown/red/gold combo!

Quick Christmas Cards with Whimsy Stamps Vintage Poinsettia Stamp Set

 Happy Thursday friends!

If you are anything like me then despite your best intentions you end up doing nearly everything at the last minute!

I've always been the same - I'm approaching my sixth decade - and there ain't no way I'm likely to change the habit of a lifetime!  (:  

To save me (a bit) from flying by the seat of my pants I have designed a set of Christmas cards which are incredibly straightforward and more importantly quick to make. 
I used my current favourite stamp set
Whimsy Stamps

I created a set of smallish (10cm x 10cm square) cards in a variety of bold colours with the beautiful poinsettia stamped heat embossed in gold.

I added a stamped and die cut sentiment and finished the card off with a few gold sequins.

...truly simples!
