Hi all! I'm so excited for today because we have a special Birch Press Design and Poppystamps collaboration for you!
You should have arrived here from the Poppystamps Blog. I fell in love with this Merry Christmas Circle Frame die as soon as I saw it! For my first card, I cut out some paper I had watercolored and layered it a few times for extra dimension. I rounded the corners of the front of the card, keeping it all very clean and simple.
For my second card, I cut out some silver foil paper with the Merry Christmas die, then added red card stock behind it. I added some versa mark leaves from the Brushed Christmas Greetings stamp set from Birch Press Designs. This would be a GREAT mass production card design - just change up the card stock colors!
Be sure to comment along the way for your chance to win. *hint - a little birdie told me that one of the winning comments will be picked from the Birch Press Design blog* Next up on the hop is Ilona!
