Need a special holiday thank you? Thanks what I designed this card for. To put in with a hostess gift for a friend. December’s Stamp of the Month is one of my favorites and a couple of stamps I’ll be using again and again. I love how beautiful this fir branch is stamped in greens, but especially in the white Stazon Ink on a Clear Card Sheet. This card may be simple with very few layers but the hand-stitching and the die cut window make it a little special.
Kindess Beautifies
To create this card, I stamped a Clear Card Sheet with the fir branch in White Stazon on the reverse side. I then flipped it and stamped the sentiment in Black Stazon on the front. While it wouldn’t look like a difference here in the photo, in real life it adds a little dimension and makes the sentiment easier to read and stamp. The window is die cut and embossed with my Labels one Spellbinders die and then the clear sheet adhered behind. To add some color, I die cut a solid patterned paper panel for the inside and then stitched around the front of the card with red embroidery thread.
Quick Tip: Change up the red to a more neutral icy color such as blue or purple and use this design all winter long.
Wishing you a beautiful Sunday!
