Hang a shining star…

I’m back with another card idea featuring the lovely Christmas Words Tree die from Lil’ Inker Designs.

This time I’ve paired it with some nice festive papers from my stash left over from Christmases past:

Paper: Elle’s Studio, Studio Calico
Die: Lil’ Inker Designs – Christmas Words Tree
Other: glitter paper, Green pen

Rather than use 3D foam tape for dimension, I cut the word die from 4 pieces of white cardstock. I coloured one of the die cuts with a green Promarker pen and also cut a star from gold glitter paper with the die to attach at the very top of the tree.

I then assembled all 4 layers and used a glue pen to stick them all together.

PRO TIP: I love the Sakura Quickie glue pen that I received in a cardmaking kit from Simon Says Stamp some time ago. It had been sat in a drawer waiting to be used once another glue pen finally dried up. But I wondered whether it would be faster to use this glue pen than applying Multi Matte medium and it was oh so quick to use in comparison. I think this glue pen might be my favourite for sticking dies together and attaching word die-cuts to projects. Glad to see you can also get them in packs of 3 on amazon. 😀

Anyway, a very simple card project but I think it really pops without being too bulky for posting either. 🙂 Think I’m also going to use this layout for more square cards with this die as well.

Until next time, happy crafting!
