Die D-Lites Holiday Inspiration | Jumping into Christmas Cards with Laurie Willison

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie Willison here. I am so glad you are joining me today.  If you are like me, you start your Christmas cards early.  For me, I like to do a stack of 5-10 cards every so often so I don’t get overwhelmed in making all my Christmas cards at once.  Today, I am here to share one clean and simple card and a tag using Holiday D-lites Dies.

To create this card, I used the D-lites Snowflakes dies to create an dry embossed pattern on the card front.

I attached the embossed panel to the aqua card base with fun foam for some dimension.  Next, I heat embossed the sentiment to a vellum rectangle and then added in a gold glitter snowflake die cut on the top.

To finish off the card, I added some dew drops for a little touch of bling.
