Bringing Home the Christmas Tree!

Hello to all of You!

Guess what!!!  Part 2 of the new Christmas release is out and ready for you to take a peek.  Just go to our online store to check it out.  You will not be disappointed.  It is fantastic and I can't wait to start to play with all the new dies.  Be looking for the Design Team inspiration coming soon.

For today,  I am using one of the dies from the Part 1 new Christmas release.  It features two adorable penguins!

Design Steps:

 1.  Using the Penguin's Christmas Tree die cut out all of the pieces using green, red, yellow, black and white card stock

 2.  Shade and assemble the pieces.  I shaded with a sponge and different color inks to match the items being shaded

 3.  For the base use white card stock size A2.  Cut a piece of Red card stock 5 1/4 x 4, a piece of green checked DP 5 x 3 3/4. Using the largest Nested Stitched Eyelet Rectangle die cut a piece of whtie card stock and run it through the dotted embossing folder

4.  Glue the green checked DP to the red card stock and then add the white rectangle.  Add the red ribbon by taping it to the back of the red card stock.  Last pop up the penguin die to the white rectangle.  Next glue to the white card base and add you sentiment.  To finish use a little clear glitter on the hats and glossy accents to the star
