All that Glitters . . .

Moxie Fab World is having a challenge, click on the link above to join in!  So I decided to take that challenge, especially since Jillian just got in her new O Christmas Tree Die Set that matches the stamp set she released last year!


The O Christmas Tree die matches the tree and star stamps and leaves a very narrow border around the stamped image ~ I LOVE IT!!!

I die cut Hunter WorldWin Paper with our Polka Dot Backdrop to give that pierced border I could stitch with Gold Metallic thread.  This did take a little time, patience and reading glasses!!! But I love the way it turned out, just added that special touch to this card.                                                                                                        I die cut Golden Pearl paper I had in my stash with the Basic Backdrop die set and also the stars for the trees which are included in the O Christmas Tree Die set.                                                                                     Embossed the trees in Gold then die cut and used 3D foam squares by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.                                                                                                 When using coordinating stamps and dies, it is best to stamp first then cut.  The die helps you line up where it needs to be placed.                                                                                                                                         Added the {die}licious Flag Die cut for the sentiment trip and a simple but elegant card!

Note: if you already have the O Christmas Tree Stamp Set you can purchase just the die set HERE.  Otherwise, O Christmas Tree comes in the set with the stamps and die for your convenience HERE
