Warm Wishes Slimline Card with Leanne

Posted by Leanne West | Nov 22, 2019 | Uncategorized

Hello everyone! I have a holiday slimline card to share today featuring one of my favorite things from the last release… the Warm Wishes Word die. I have always loved adding a bold greeting to my cards. I’ve put the Warm Wishes die cut front and center on this slimline design and then added a few cute critters and snowflakes. I started with my slimline card base that measures 3.5″ tall by 8.5″ wide. I die cut a large heart from pink card stock. To darken the edges of the heart, I sponged on some Candied Apple Distress Ink....

The die cuts a frame, the tree and two ground pieces. I then ran the die through the machine again, this time with some brown woodgrain effect card to cut just...

Hello everyone! I have some tips to share with you today on how to add details to die cut elements for your cards. The card I’m sharing today features lots of die cut elements including Warm Wishes Words and the snowman from Winter Woods Overlay. This card is A2 size.

This set is the cutest ever, all these little critters are gathering around the tree adding lots of decorations .. how adorable?!

I created a coordinated card base out of white cardstock, masked the bottom and inked the...
