My second Christmas card uses another Poppystamps die, the Stitched Snowflake Cutouts die. I couldn’t find it for purchase on their website, so it must be retired, but it is still available online at other retailers with a quick search. This is a fairly quick and simple card. I used the die to cut out the snowflakes from the front panel of a pre-scored blue card. I saved the die cuts for use on another project. Then, I glued a piece blue foil on the inside, front of the card so it would show through the snowflake cutouts on the front of the card. To give it more pizzazz, I cut out some more snowflakes from another blue foil piece and adhered them over the snowflake cutouts on the front of the card at a different angle. I was very pleased with the look. Finally, I chose three different ways to apply a greeting to the front of the card: heat embossing, die cut and ink, and plain ink. Hope you enjoy! The image is below followed by my YouTube video and finally the links to the products I used on the card (I am an Amazon affiliate).
