Christmas Cheer.......

Yep, time to get started on those Christmas cards, too!  Aaaannd.... with the new month, there's a new stamp set at The Stamps of Life!  This month happens to be a Christmas theme set called Stockings4Christmas.  It's adorable!  Plus there's an awesome coordinating die set, too!  If you're a die hard member, it's on it's way.  If not, it will be available on the 20th of the month.

I'm going to share two cards with you today using the new set (and dies).  This one I used one of the Sizzix Greetings Scalloped edge drop ins card die set.  The scalloped border just gives a "homey" feel to it, I think.  :)  The word I chose was Cheers to drop in.  I cut off the "s" and then also covered the spot with a stocking; now it's part of the sentiment.   I also used a Sizzix/Stephanie Barnard embossing folder on the inside layer called dots from the 3 border pack called flowers/dots.

For this next card,  I used the Sizzix 3 D banner drop ins card die set.  I created my own background paper for the front. Also, I used the rectangle dies from The Stamps of Life a lot: perfectly layered card front papers.  :) 

Such a fun Christmas set!  Check out The Stamps of Life gallery for more cards by the DT.
