Well, November means it’s pretty much festive makes here on out!
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a fresh take on a favourite set…
The Christmas Cloche die set and accompanying stamps from Concord & 9th offer lots of options for creating different combinations of focal points inside the “glass” dome.
Today I’ve gone with a more contemporary look and a fresh colour palette.
Although, of course, the November lighting conditions are in full swing, sadly! Gloomy grey…

I started out stamping the main sentiment from the Christmas Cloche stamp set on the outline die in the Christmas Cloche die set.
For a change, I wanted to go with pops of colour against a fresh white neutral background. So I went with a mix of pink tones for the cloche and bow and minty shades for the trees.
The trees are made with the same tree segment dies, but just removing one of the bottom segments to get the different heights.
There’s also some glittery white snow inside the cloche, and I used Matte Gold cardstock for the base of the cloche.
I covered a card blank in a lovely foliage paper that fit the minty shades, and added some dimension behind the various elements when assembling the card.
Finally, I added golden stars to the trees, using the little die in the set, and sparkly crystal sequins to complete the look. I always reach for my little bottle of Glossy Accents when adding sequins, as this adhesive really holds them in place and dries nice and clear.
Until next time, happy crafting!
