CLOSE UP SHOT OF THE GIFT AND THE CARD

These die templates are so much fun and I know I am going to get a lot of mileage out of them...perfect for any gift giving from Birthdays to Christmas to Graduations to well wishes for a sick loved one.  Today I am showcasing two of the sets, first the Cheery Lynn Designs - Merry Christmas Gift Envelope 14 Piece Die Set (New Die Set) and the Cheery Lynn Designs - To And From Gift Envelope 13 Piece Die Set - B376 (New Die Set). 

 

MINI CARD AND WRAPPED GIFT - Merry Christmas

The first and second picture show this project which includes a Christmas gift and gift card.  Each of these die sets come with everything you need to make the envelope, the inner card and a nice sampling of embellishments. This set includes a Merry Christmas sentiment tag, two snowflakes, a gingerbread man, bells, a bow, a stocking, a candy cane, a punch out design, two punch snowflake-like punch outs and the inner card cutting die...yes indeed...all of this in one set!

For this project I used the following Cheery Lynn dies:

MINI CARD AND WRAPPED GIFT - A LOVE-ly Gift

DECORATED GIFT BAG AND FRONT OF THE GIFT CARD

This die cutting set is so elegant.  I love the main shape and I just had to use everything on this set.  On both gifts shown, I wanted to tie in the wrapping with the card itself.  On this gift bag I used the inner evelope card cutting die and the quatrefoil-like shape and the larger heart.  On the card with envelope I used the stitch line box punch out die, the quatrefoil-like shapped die and the two hearts on the front.  Below I used the flourish and the heart.  I have so many more ideas for these die cutting sets.  Can't wait to keep creating.  I hope you get a chance to do the same.

Hello wonderful people.  Chrissy Mac here with a custom 5" x 7" card project using gold, more gold and some more gold, playing off of the natural craft paper color.  I had two patterned thick papers that I wanted to work with that started me on the "golden" path.  One with the gold foiled arrows pattern and one with a gold foil diamond pattern.  And thus began my card making journey.

This was the result of that journey.  Because I was using so much of the gold and natural tan, I needed a heavy color for contrast and somehow ended up with black since my base card was white and no other color was working for me, but I think any deep, vibrant or rich color could work too.

In the center of the larger flower from the ever so useful Cheery Lynn Designs Floral Bouquet Kit Die Set (each flower with one black cut and one gold paper cut) I ended up using the smallest star die and curling it star points up that provided a tie in to the larger stars in the center and in black to tie in with the black flower layer.  The stars cut in graduating sizes worked well with the gold theme and provided the perfect area for my "wishing you well" sentiment stamp.  I used the following Cheery Lynn dies:
