Dear Ones~
The theme this time over at Double D is Candy Canes. How FUN!! Who doesn't love a candy cane? Here is the Mood Board for our inspiration:
And here's my card:
Candy Canes are not something I use every day on my cards. I had to search for even a die that I could use. I finally found this image in a coffee cup die set. That background is a new Tim Holtz die set and it's simply fabulous. It comes in two pieces and I chose to die cut both with white.
I love the texture!!
The Ingredients:
GKD Red Hot and White Card Stock
Tim Holtz Layered Plaid Die Set
Spellbinders Pinked Circle Die
SU Layered Circles Die
GKD Swiss Dots Embossing Folder
SU Poinsettia Dies
SU Teeny Tiny Wishes for Greeting

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! The layered background dies are fabulous. What a great design they make together. The poinsettia, pine branch and candy canes are the perfect focal Christmas image. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteOh, gosh, you made the cutest card with those little candy canes! Love the cover plate combo die and the foliage and poinsettia for dressing. I miss my MS branch punch. It conked out years ago 'cause I used it so much. It was incredibly useful. ps: I got a good giggle from the Christmas card you sent -- Frosty's baby picture -- tee hee hee hee hee! Happy holidays!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet, sweet creation this is Judy! I adore those sweet little candy canes. I've had the TH dies on my wish list and think they need to come home with me on my next shopping spree. Thanks for the enablement and inspiration. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
ReplyDeleteI love all the red and white with a little pop of green and gold, Judy. That background is to die for. Pun intended. Have a wonderful holiday.
