Over the weekend, I've managed to get a couple more cards made with my new stuff from last weekend.
First this card using one of the panel's I made last Sunday.
This used the Waffle Flower Duo Layering Poinsettia stencil. Using some Berrylicous ink from Altenew together with some Lunar Paste - Silver Lining. I cut the panel into two pieces and stamped the sentiment from Darkroom Door - stitched Christmas. I added the panels with some 3D foam. I wanted to add some Poinsettia and went through my stamps and decided on this bouquet on Altenew Holiday Flower. I used the Berrylicous ink to blend on some card and stamped the flower. I fussy cut the red flowers. I used some of the Lunar Paste blended onto a scrap of card and once it dried, fussy cut the whole bouquet and layered the red flowers on top. Added a dote of gold Kindyglitz for the flower centres. Really happy how the card turned out.
Card two is also a Christmas one - this time using a Woodware stamp.
The stamp set is called Printable Bauble Circles - designed by Jane Gill. It has the circles, toppers and snowflakes. I started by making my panel background. I spritzed a little Distress Spritz in Peacock Feathers and Fossilised Amber. Blended some Peacock Feathers DI around the edge. I stamped the snowflakes in Distress Ink Chipped Sapphire. The three baubles were made by spritzing Peacock Feather Spritz for the big blue one. Stamped the big circle and added the sentiment from Gina K's Holiday Tapestry set. Splattered with some gold Lunar paste watered down. The medium one used some Distress ink - Peeled Paint and spritzed with Sparkle spray and stamped the snowflakes in the Peeled Paint. And the little on was Forest Moss Distress Ink with the sparkle spray and added the snowflakes in the DI. Added a little Peacock Feathers ink around each of the baubles and added splatters on them all. The biggest bauble was added with some 3D tape and the other two were glued directly on the panel. Added the topper and ruled a line for the string. There is heaps of sparkle in real life.
Adding this to the challenge at Darnell's NBUS
I still a couple of more stamps, dies and embossing folders to use. Next weekend is a long weekend for us so an extra days crafting!

I won't even say how long I lingered over each of these schparkly and gorgeous Christmas cards, Dawn! You really have a talent for shading just where it is most effective and the same with your compositions! I forget to cut my full panel and pop it up with the sediment nestled in, so I'm bookmarking this to remind me! Excellent fussy-cutting, too! And your baubles somehow look like they are 3D and made of glass! So dreamy! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
thank you for your kind words.
Fantastic cards.
Gorgeous Christmas cards, Dawn! I love the ornaments and perfect way to use that stenciled panel!
You are on a Christmas roll. I really like your grey & wine colour combo. CarolG
