Hi and welcome to day 1 of sneak peeks for the My Creative Time: 60th Edition Release. Today we are sneaking the wonderful Fun Stitched Ornaments & More Stamp Set I decided to make the ornaments look like the large Christmas tree light bulbs.
The ornaments/light bulbs from the Fun Stitched Ornaments & More Stamp Set were all cut out using yellow, red, green, and blue paper scraps. A white gel pen was used to create a reflection mark on each one and then they were topped with Glossy Accents. The light bulb string was created by using a die cut from the Fun Tweet Me Dies The little heart was cut off and the lightbulb die cuts were strung along it. They were glued onto an aqua card stock Stitched Rectangular Frame Die cut.
The little branches were cut out using a die from the Fun Stitched Ornaments & More Stamp Set. They were layered at the top of the card and then any edges that overlapped were cut off with scissors. The sentiment "Merry & Bright" from the All Is Calm Stamp Set, was stamped onto the bottom of the card. A red card stock layer was added to the back of the frame die cut and then a white gel pen was used to add faux stitching. The card was finished by adding some red sequins to the card.
