Stampin' Up! - Thoughtful Branches for Coffee & Cards

Hello, with less than 150 sleeps until Christmas I thought it was time (sorry) to make a start on cards for the festive season!

Throughout August I will be showcasing the Thoughtful Branches bundle that is only available whilst stocks last until the end of the month.


Some of you may remember a stamp set that was available last Christmas called Wonderland that has now sadly retired. I decided to do a remake of one of my favourite makes from last year but using Thoughtful Branches instead.


At Coffee & Cards this week we will be having fun with a technique that creates stunning (and quick) backgrounds using Sponge Brayers.

I love the die cut tree, cut from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper and the snow is so sparkly with the addition of Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter - be prepared to go home sparkly!


We will also be decorating the inside, again using the Brayer but this time with just one colour and a few of the gorgeous trees.

I finished my card off with a favourite sentiment from Holly jolly Greetings but I will have a selection with me for you to choose from.
