Morning all!
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with my last project for Christmas in July.
This time, I’ve created a little die mash-up by combining a new-to-me die set from the Bargain Basement with a more recent festive favourite.
Stamp: Concord & 9th – Home for the Holidays
Dies: Concord & 9th – Home for the Holidays Stacks, Avery Elle – Let It Snow (r)
The Avery Elle Let It Snow die set is currently heavily discounted, and it’s really worth adding this set to your Christmas arsenal.
It includes a frame die with snowy punch-out elements that can be left attached or snipped apart if you prefer, a tall arch window that makes a perfect snowglobe dome, a Let It Snow sentiment die, and other useful accents such as snowflakes.
This die is great for creating wintry scenes, so that’s exactly what I’ve done!
I’ve used this die set to frame some houses and other winter village staples from Concord & 9th’s popular Home for the Holidays die set.
Most of the cardstock elements come from Concord’s Assorted cardstock pack and when I’m out for a crafty evening with friends, I simply take that pack with me, so I can cut and assemble elements from the Home for the Holidays set and Over the Rooftops set and pop them in a jewellery organizer tray ready for use on future cards.
And this is one such card.
All I then needed to do was cut some snowy hills with the die in the Home for the Holidays set to fit inside the arch, cut a few snowflakes from the Avery Elle Let It Snow set, and heat emboss a sentiment from the Home for the Holidays coordinating stamp set, and ta-da! Card complete!
Until next time, happy crafting!
