Hello everyone!! I'm so excited that it's day #1 of My Creative Time's 38th Edition Release!!! This release is off the charts amazing and I love every bit of it!! I know you all are going to love it too!!
Today we are showcasing the new "Stitched Oval Dies".
I absolutely love how you can mix these new oval dies with older MCT products!! When I saw them I immediately thought of creating a frame of the Eiffel tower from MCT: Spring Time in Paris. The gold embossed Eiffel tower looks so gorgeous in the daylight!! This picture doesn't do it justice!
The little holly leaves were created from MCT: Seasonal Greetings Stamp Set. The berries were created from MCT: Stitched Pretty Flowers and Leaves Dies. I think the holly and berries added the perfect little holiday touch to the gold flourishes.
I used MCT: Stitched Rectangles and More to cut the pretty plaid pattern paper and the green accent paper.
I loved creating the Poinsettia out of MCT products!! I always have fun finding new ways to use the dies I already have!! I used one of the leaves from MCT: A Thankful Heart Stamp set to create the petals. I inked the petal edges in Memento: Rhubarb Stalk ink. I then glued two layers of leaves together and added the golden center using MCT: Stitched Pretty Flowers and Leaves Dies. I finished the flower by adding pretty green leaves from MCT: Stitched Leaves.
I finished the card by adding the sentiment also from MCT: Spring Time in Paris onto a banner from MCT: Vintage Stitched Label Dies.
