12 Days of Christmas - Day 5


I really loved doing today's card. We are now on Day 5 of my 12 days of Christmas event and I am having so much fun doing this. I can't believe tomorrow is my half way point. This has been a blast.
     On today's card I started by using Cricut cartridge Winter Frolic. I cut the image out at 4". I knew I wanted to cover most of the card with it so this was the perfect size. After putting the image together, I then took some Stickles and using color Xmas Red I colored in the red ribbon. I also colored the pom pom on the bird's hat with Star Dust. After they dried I used my I-Rock tool and placed a red stud where the knot would be on the bow. It had no trouble sticking to the Stickles. While it cooled I placed the snowflake paper on top of the dark blue layer and using my sewing machine sewed around the edges leaving about an 1/8" margin. I then adhered the layers to the white card base and then adhered the birdhouse image on top. On the inside of the card I stamped the phrase from My Pink Stamper Biggie Christmas using black ink.. Here are the details:
  • Cricut cart: Winter Frolic
  • Paper: Bazzill and Kaiser craft
  • Stickles: Xmas Red and Star Dust
  • Red stud: I-Rock tool
  • Thread: Coats and Clark
  • Sewing machine: Janome
  • Stamp: My Pink Stamper "Biggie Christmas"
  • Ink: Versafine
  • Adhesive: Scotch
I hope you all have been inspired by today's card and thank you very much for joining me during this event!
