A Stocking Shaped Card


Hey crafty friends - Linda here to share a fun stocking card as inspiration for our Diva challenge this month. Our theme is to create a Winter/Christmas project with the option of making a shaped card. Frantic Stamper is sponsoring this challenge and generously donated a lovely Christmas die bundle (see the challenge post for full details). Here's my shaped card:


Dies - Sunny Studio Santa's Stocking (Available at Frantic Stamper here).
 Lacy Snowflakes (at FS here) &
Spellbinder's Snowflake Splendor (at FS here)

I couldn't resist this darling stocking die set! I formed an A2 stocking shaped card by not cutting through the top folded edge of the cardstock. Then I added the patterned layers - such fun!!

Frantic Stamper carries such a wonderful selection of paper craft brands, plus I love FS products! If interested, please find more details and a bonus card using a FS cover plate die on my blog Scrappin', Stampin', & Singin'.

Be sure to add your project using a die or embossing folder, plus our theme, to the challenge gallery by 12/31/21 at 9pm Pacific time. Happy holidays!!

Linda & the Divas

It's Raining Christmas Cards Today

  

Frantic Stamper is Die Cut Divas' Sponsor for the December Challenge of Winter/Christmas project with an optional twist to make a shaped Winter/Christmas Card.

The prize is a Christmas Die Bundle!  Check out our Challenge Post to see the bundle here.

You can find so many "must haves" at Frantic Stamper and I was looking for something that had a WOW factor and I think I found a couple of "must haves" and I know I found many wonderful "must haves".

These houses are going to family.  Since I cut everything from glitter cardstock, which is heavier than normal cardstock, so I was cutting for what I thought was forever, but was not.  For the results, I would gladly do this again with glitter cardstock.  The glitter is incredible and even if I say so myself, just beautiful.  Since my base cardstock was glossy, I used a stopper for each card, e.g. "ho-HO-ho!" on the blue cards.

Supplies:
Poppy Stamps Winter House Pop-up Easel Set at Frantic Stampers
IO dies - Birch Trees (small die-cut birds on houses)
Elizabeth Craft Designs various sentiments stamp sets
Glitter paper in stash
Vagabond die-cut machine
