And one of the items you can purchase tomorrow with your new discount, is the coordinating framelits to the free stamp set you’ll get. You won’t have to wait like everyone else!!! Why wouldn’t you but the kit today?!? You can really get a head start on those Christmas cards now!! So let me share with you another card I created with the stamp set and coordinating framelits.

I took a 3 x 4″ piece of Whisper White and stamped the sentiment in Soft Suede and attached it to a 3 1/4 x 4 1/4″ piece of Real Red, then adhered to the upper left of the Garden Green card base. Then I took a piece of scrap Garden Green and cut out the trees with the framelits. I took a dauber and distressed the edges with some Whisper White Craft ink and set it aside to dry a minute. While that was drying, I stamped the deer in Soft Suede on Whisper White and cut him out. Then I took the holly stamp and colored it with the Real Red and Garden Green Stampin’ Write Markers and stamped the image and cut it out. I added a Mini Dimensional to it and added it to the left corner of the sentiment. Once the trees were dry, I added a couple of the Mini Dimensionals to the single tree and adhered it between the the two tree image to give some dimension. I then added some Multipurpose Glue to it and sprinkled some of the Dazzling Diamonds over it and set it aside to set. Once the glue had a chance to dry, I added another Mini Dimension cut in half on the deer and added him to the front of the trees and then with more dimensionals, adhered it to the front of the card on the lower right. I love how the glitter makes the trees glisten and the white craft ink helps to give it a more realistic look to it. Here’s a closeup of the trees:
