Limited Edition Home for the Holidays Card Kit

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple projects using the new Limited Edition Home for the Holidays Card Kit. My first card uses the Rainbow Splash Swiss Dot Embossing Folder for the background on a panel of Desert Storm cardstock. Then I layered a panel of Simple Stories pattern paper along with the adorable Festive Snowman. For the sentiment I used one of the Tim Holtz Idea-ology Christmas Stickers.

Manger Scene

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a cute little holiday card using the adorable Manger Scene Die Set by Erin Lee Creative.

I curved the sentiment using my MISTI so that it followed the curve of the design.
