Fireplace Shaped Dies Elegant Christmas Card with Vanessa

Hello everybody! Vanessa here today with a cozy card using the Fireplace Shaped Dies. These dies are genius! I thought a lot about how I wanted my fireplace to look like and decided to go with a clean & elegant version:

First, I die-cut my card base from white cardstock and assembled back and front. Then I die-cut the rest of the fire place and adhered everything. I die-cut the stockings from patterned paper, slid them onto black twine and tied the twine to the card.

Now I die-cut the pot (the bowl from Blissfull Baking) and the tree (from Gleeful Reindeer), colored them with Copics and adhered them.

Finally, I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Christmas Home onto a strip of black cardstock, trimmed it and adhered it to the mantel.

I wish we had a fireplace in our home! But unfortunately it is not very common any more in Germany. Now I can at least create as many as I want to!

Playful Polar Bears Interactive Baking Bears Card with Franci

Hi everyone! Franci here with you today with a special Christmas card! Can you believe Christmas will be here in 40 days?! I'm super excited since winter is my favorite time of the year and I love Christmas time. So I created a special festive card today and I'm so happy about how it turned out. Any Christmas cookies lovers here?! 

I decided to combine the Playful Polar Bears stamp set with the Blissful Baking stamp set because they coordinated so perfectly together! First I die cut the scalloped box pop up card base using a Lawn Fawn die, and created some little snowy hills for all the different "layers" inside the box, which I glued all together. 

Then I stamped all my images, colored them with Copics and then die cut them with the coordinating dies. It takes quite a lot of time to do. So you have to save this card for a very special person ;) Well, I'm joking. There's nothing better than some late night coloring with your favorite stamps to relax and feel happy! 

Here's a little detail shot. I drew and colored some cookie dough inside the bowl with Copics and I also added some chocolate chips with a black Copic friendly marker to add some additional interest. It's fun, isn't it?! I added as many details as I could to really give a nice happy "Christmas baking" feel to the scene and the little bear with the kitchen glove and the biscuit tray is my fave! 

I also added a little platter with a cup of chocolate and a little pastry to another bear. I love the little Christmas stocking full of cookies! And the last bear is writing the "Have a sweet Christmas" sentiment with his bag of frosting! Ha. This card just makes me giggle so much!! 

Hope you like it and thank you so so much for stopping by!
