A December to Remember at Die Cut Divas

A  December To Remember at Die Cut Divas:
Waffle Flower stamps & dies are on display.

The Theme is Christmas/Winter

Just like me, so many card makers are getting those last minute holiday cards and tags ready.  I have really liked the Open Book die set and I used it once again.  I really like the way this turned out.  I thought the last of my paper stash background would look great behind this quite feminine open book die-cut, but when I added the dark green of a Nuvo Crystal Drops to the background card, I knew I made the right decision.  This is a sample for The Die Cut Divas.  

The prize is a $15 code to go shopping at Waffle Flower

Waffle Flower Essential Sentiments stamps & matching dies or the bundle

What would December be without The Creative Crafters?

  The Creative  Crafters starts a monthly challenge every 15th of the month and I've made       as inspiration for this month. 

This challenge is always "Anything Goes".

I made a large Tag with some wonderful gold paper.  These larger tags are great for a private note that's more than just a "TO" and "FROM" type of message. The gold paper is quite striking in Real Life.  I have used the die-cut image in October, but I'm still making those tags.

November Card Chain Reveal

 November Card Chain Reveal

I chose the option of feathers.  There is a feather on the book and also inside the card.  If you wanted to build the book with more pages, you certainly can, but I chose simple and easy.  

We had the following options for our November card exchange.

Supplies:
Waffle Flower Essential Sentiments Combo
Waffle Flower Open Book die
Waffle Flower Shader Brush 1+Double-ended Rainbow pack
Distress Ink Oxide Picked Raspberry
gold paper for the feather

I'll be using Vintage Cameo 2 Greyscale for December.  With a Greyscale, you can actually get quicker results than with a regular digital of this image.  I was amazed at how quickly I colored her.  I always color the skin tones first, especially the face.  A face can go bac very quickly and if it does, it's almost impossible to save (I have saved a couple, but still).  

I you see I used a Waffle Flower Postage Collage Die, I'm referring to the outside white edging surrounding the outside.  If you cut an 8 1/2 in X 11 in card stock just as you might for cutting 4 pieces to cover over an A2 card, then use the Postage Collage Die to cut out the collage, you have a wonderful edging to use on other cards, such as this one.

Supplies:
Morgan's Artworld Vintage Cameo 2 Greyscale
Birch Press Lazy Hillside
Waffle Flower Postage Collage Die
Copic markers
Vagabond die cut machine
