Welcome to week 11 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop. Another week closer to Christmas and more inspiration from the Art With Heart Team. This week I have combined the Delivering Cheer stamp set and the Peaceful Prints Speciality DSP from the Sale-a-bration rewards to make my card. There is only a couple of weeks remaining until the end of Sale-a-bration so don’t forget to place your orders before the end of September to receive your FREE rewards.
To make my cards I stamped the skit image on the red check and snowflake piece of DSP and cut it out. I then stamped the same image again on a 2” wide strip of Basic White cardstock and coloured in the legs and shoes with Blends Markers.
I attached the patterned paper skirt above the legs with glue or tape.
I stamped the image of the arms holding the tree on a separate piece of Basic White cardstock and again coloured with the Blends Markers. I cut out this image and mounted it with Dimensionals over the skirt.
I cut the top of the strip with the Delightful Tag Topper Punch. The bow on the top is Real Red Sheer Ribbon.
For the background of my card I cut three Stitched Rectangles from another of the Peaceful Prints DSP pack. These were mounted on a Basic Black card base. The greeting was heat embossed in white on Real Red cardstock.
I’m very pleased with how my card turned out and I’m loving using my free Sale-a-bration products, don’t forget to order before the end of September to receive yours.

I love that you cut the plaid paper with Stitched Rectangles dies, Rach; they make for an awesome background against the black. The woman's skirt looks very festive, and the dimension you've given her arms and the tree looks great. Lovely card, my friend.
ReplyDeleteI love the DSP you have used for background and that you have used another DSP for the dress.
ReplyDeleteRachel this is so clever and so effective - you totally nailed this!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgerous, Rachel. I adore that skirt with the snowflake pattern and the 3 DSP rectangles in the background. I think this is the best card I've seen using this set!
ReplyDeleteHow clever to overlay the skirt with the DSP Rachel. Your card is gorgeous. I have never taken any note of this set but am really impressed by your stunning card.
