Congrats to Janet, the newest Featured Stamper (FS810) on Splitcoast. She has a lovely gallery and I chose THIS card to case. I kept the Christmas wreath theme but replaced the dog w/ a banner, left off the designer paper and replaced it w/ a die cut lattice and glitter paper.

For my Christmas card, I stamped colored and die cut this lovely new wreath using a stitched circle die and my out of the box technique. I added a mirror gold circle behind it and popped it up a bit. I stamped and cut out an extra poinsettia for the top of the wreath and tucked the banner under it. The lattice die cut was added to a white glitter bg for a little Christmas sparkle.

Here are the Copics I used:

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC871), & we’re visiting Minted & their Pinterest Board. My inspiration came from THIS Christmas card.  I liked the white bg w/ just the accents of red & green.

My Christmas card is pretty easy. I die cut the Holly cover die out of white glitter card stock and a bunch of the holly & berries out of green & red glitter. The Merry was cut out of red glitter & the shadow out of white glitter, then stacked onto more layers to elevated it a bit. I had some big clear glitter embellishments that I colored w/ a red Copic & added them on top of the holly sprays on the side. I used a plaid piercing die on the plain white bg…subtle, but it adds a little texture to it.

A big congrats to Lisa, the newest Featured Stamper (FS809)! I chose THIS card to case. I kept the trees and layout, but added a house instead of the deer & used different dies.

After die cutting the trees, the house & all the little pieces for the house, I put them all together, along w/ some snowy hills for the ground. The house & the Joy word are elevated a bit then stickles was added to the snow.
