So Let the HOP Begin!
I have been working on my christmas cards since July, but I am nowhere near finished which was good because I absolutely fell in love with the new holiday release from Die-namites! For today’s card I am using the Pine Wreath die. I love the intricate details of the pine, something I definitely could not achieve with a digital cut or punch.
I began by cutting 6 shapes out of two different colors
I started with the full cut on the bottom and layered pieces of the die that I had cut apart on top filling in the empty spaces to add more fullness to the die. I used a Zig ball point tip glue pen. I chose this adhesive because its not too messy but easy to get into fine lines and not dry too fast.
After layering all the greenery I made another cut out of red cardstock and cut the birds from the shape.
I attached them using the same glue on top of the green cut that I started with.
I glued the wreath to a white card (A2) and rounded the corners of the card. I attached some red gem dots (Recollections from Michaels) to make the berries around the wreath.
Then I added some silver polka-dot washi tape around a stamped sentiment on the bottom. It was super simple but I love the results!

I loved the wreath that you made for the blog hop. You really made it come to life with the dual colors of the birds and the wreath dies. The embellishments were a great addition.
