Marianne Wishes using the Berry die from Advent Window number 14.

I absolutely love the new Poinsettia stamp from Marianne this season and I've used it here a bit like a design paper.   I stamped it in the corner of my square piece of card and then partially just above.  I then coloured it with my Copics and added the die cut poinsettias on top.  Now it's really hidden my coloured pieces but if you look at the next picture it adds some great depth to the card.  I've then used die cuts from the berry die (behind window number 14 on the advent calendar) to add further dimension.

The little fir tree branches are from the Holly Wreath set that I used on my previous card this week - it's all about mixing and matching!  Full list of items used below.

Marianne Designs Advent Window no 11

I'm sharing another card with you today using the cute little birdhouse that is behind window no 11 in the Marianne Designs Advent Calendar.

I cut the Holly Wreath die three times and then stacked them up to add some dimension and did the same with the birdhouse before cutting again in red to get the little heart in the centre. I did the same with the house and then added the fabulous red rhinestones for the berries.

I then cut the wreath in kraft card purely so I could stamp and  heat emboss the sentiment onto Kraft knowing that it would fit snuggly inside the die and I wouldn't have to worry about centralising everything!

It's Advent calendar time - Marianne Snowflakes

 

I'm not sure if you've seen but Marianne have the most fantastic Advent calendar out for us crafters this year - full of delightful Marianne goodies!

 Hopefully, you have opened your calendar by now and you will find this gorgeous little snowflake stamp behind window no 1!  

My card uses the stamp  to create a whole panel of snowflakes as  it stamps randomly with no edges.  I've used it to make a silver embossed panel on my card which matches perfectly with lots of other snowflake goodies in my Marianne collection - details below.
