Hello Everybody!

We are on day two of our preview.
Check out these fun dies.

Using the Happiest Holidays Die I created this tag.

I started this tag by choosing paper from Christmas Party Paper Pad

The bows and wreaths on this paper caught my attention!

I cut the paper out using the largest of the Essential Tags Die Set.

I also cut out a second piece of card stock to glue on the back to give my tag some stiffness.

Once these two pieces were glued together, I used a Gray alcohol marker

and added some dimension around the edges.

You are going to love this next part, and it is a game changer with word dies.

To create my snowy lead letters I first started with some red card stock.

I smeared Versamark ink across the card stock added clear embossing powder and heat set.

Next is smeared Versamark ink on top of that added white embossing powder and heat set.

I like to put my paper in the freezer for a minute to make sure the

embossing powder is absolutely dry and hard.

Here is where the magic happens, I take my dye and place it on the

the halfway point between the white and clear embossing powder.

Once the dye is taped down, I run it through my die cutting machine.

It is important to make sure that the letters cut all the way through.

I pull my letters out of the dye and admire the results!

To finish my tag I used a darker green card stock behind my snowy letters.

I finished off my tag with a matching dark green bow.

For my next card I started with a card base made from the Circle Frames Die Set.

I chose the Super cute green and pink holly paper from Christmas Party Paper Pad

On top of this I have matching green card stock that has been altered with Distressed Oxide Spray.

the merry is from Merriest Christmas Die Set

I created the merry letters using the same technique as I used above.

For these letters I use clear embossing powder and Ranger Holographic Powder.

Once the card was assembled, I added a present from the Gift Builder Die Set,

To finish this card a couple of cheerful stars.

I hope you enjoyed my cards and tags!
