A Tree and Stockings

Hello once again. It is time for the new challenge at ABC Christmas Challenge. Helen is hosting this time round, and having reached the letters ‘S‘ and ‘T‘, we have the themes of:

S is for Stockings’ and T is for Tree’

I created a card for each of the themes:

S is for Stockings

This first card was created using dies from The Greetery – the stockings and the foliage. Once these die cut, and the stockings layered together, I created a background white panel using a Spellbinders embossing folder, and added the elements by creating a swag of greenery, hanging the stockings from that swag, then also adding ombre gems.

The sentiments is gold foiled.

T is for Tree

For this second card, I used this fabulously fun die set from A Pocket Full Of Happiness – ‘Happy Rexmas’. There is certainly a lot of die cutting for this image, and I also used an embossing folder on the tree to create the added details – the same embossing folder I used for the background, from Spellbinders.

On the die set, the words came directly from the dinosaur mouth, but I didn’t want to create a larger than A2 card, so I added them above.

I hope you can come and join us by sharing your Christmas creations following one or both of our themes. If it isn’t clear which theme has been followed – then please let us know. There seems to have been a few entries to our challenge which do not match our themes and had to be deleted……

    Your first card is so lovely and charming, so I wasn’t expecting the 2nd card which is outrageously funny. Congratulations on your cards. So glad you joined the challenge of Anything Goes at Die Cut Divas. Arlene , Die Cut Divas, DT.

    Gorgeous card Lynda! Beautiful design with the perfect holiday elements. Love the pine swag and stockings. The dinosaur tree is adorable too. Thank you so much for sharing with A Cut Above’s September Challenge.

    You have outdone yourself with these. I like them both but your dinosaur tree is hilarious. Great designs and all the fiddly stuff you’ve done has paid off big time.
