Joy To The World with Lisa Blastick

Hello! Hoping everyone is enjoying the holiday season. I can't believe it is already December 1st...WOW...time sure does fly by.... Today I'm sharing a new card with Cheery Lynn Designs celebrating Christmas.

I'm so in love with these colors for the holiday. I layered the wreath from Joy to the World on top of the lacy Felicity Doily. Then I placed the sentiment in the center. I made two sets of the Poinsettias in white and added gala glitz in the centers. I added gala glitz to the top of the star too.

The Santa Sleigh and Reindeer is a great piece for your die collection. I added pop dots behind the reindeer and sleigh. The Sparkle Christmas Tree and Present, I die cut in white and used a silver marker and black marker to color. The tree stump was die cut in black paper.

I used Holly Leaves in the matching paper and added tiny black stars in two corners.

Hope you enjoyed!

Tree Shaker Card by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Hi everyone, it's JULIE here today and I am sharing some Festive inspiration using the new Christmas Tree shaker die. I have made this card in mind that many of us like to make a lot of Christmas cards, so this is a design that won't take too long to make. My card measures 4 and a half inches square, this is smaller than my usual square cards I make.

My Christmas Tree was coloured with a mix of Distress Powder and a sparkly powder and filled with Metal Confetti, Micro Beads and Glass Glitter.

All my sparkly and snow layers were made by heat embossing with different colours of powder after die cutting them out. This takes a little longer to do but has the advantage of your glitter staying in place and not falling off.

In answer to your question Gail Lass, how do we manage not to have the glitter sticking to the acetate ? left in our comments on Blog Hop Day. I use Glass Glitter inside my shakers which is less static and our metal confetti doesn't hold a static charge. I also keep the protective paper over my acetate as I die cut it and only pull off as I am ready to glue in place. This way the acetate is not picking up static charge from your body. Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for all your wonderful comments on Blog Hop Day, I loved reading them all. It would be great to see you sharing your creativity with Cheery Lynn Dies in our Bi Weekly Challenge with a chance to win a $20 Shopping Spree.
