December Calendar Card

Wednesday, September 25, 2024
Brenda is our fabulous hostess at Little Red Wagon and she's looking for numbers.


I used a NBUS embossing folder that I received in a grab box years ago. However, I knew it would be just perfect for this challenge! I layered some die cut branches (combining dies from Your Next Stamp and a generic brand) as well as a pine cone and berries (both from the same generic brand as some of the branches). I topped off the bunch with some crinkle ribbon. It would have been a fairly quick card to put together if it weren't for trying to remove the branch cuts from the cardstock after running through my die cutter. Turns out it wasn't as simple as I'd planned!

Please head over to Little Red Wagon to see how the rest of the Girlfriends have used numbers on their projects. We'd love to have you join us too!

Now that is a VERY pretty embossing folder and it's perfect for your delightful Christmas card, Kate! I like how you've placed the greenery and ribbon, too. I think I have a greenery die like that; you've inspired me to use it.

What a beauty Kate, gorgeous card and love the embossed background and floral corner, I know what you mean about getting that sort of leaf out of the die..

luv CHRISSYxx

This is so perfect, Kate! It's also inspiring because I think I have this very same NBUS EF in my stash. What great inspiration, thanks!

Splendid card, Kate! Especially loving the pretty bow. That embossing folder was waiting for this challenge.
