I got a quick chance to play around just for fun recently as I am still trying to "clean" off my desk. And "cleaning" involves having to make things with the bits and pieces that are lying around on the desk. This image was die cut from a sample commercial Christmas card (someone had given me a whole stack of these samples a year or so ago). The embossing is already part of the image, making it super easy to create a quick card! I die cut the panel with a stitched rectangle die and matted it on gold shimmer card stock before adding it to a red card base. I then stamped the sentiment on a vellum banner and adhered it to the card, adding a little bow die cut from the gold shimmer card stock.
Supplies:
Stamps: Verve "Peace on Earth"
Dies: My Favorite Things "Blueprints 13" stitched rectangle and Picket Fence Studio bow
