And today, the last card from the Christmas Elegance classes. Memory Box Poinsettia Candles die set on the Memory Box Modern Tile background die.

poppystamps Swirled Peace die and 3 small Pretty Pink Posh gold sequins finish it off.

All three of the cards together…

I can’t help but think back to the days when we just had circle, heart and star punches! WOW! The paper crafting industry has come so far! Really makes me appreciate Memory Box and all the other companies out there that provide us with so much to create with.

Hi everyone! Time to share the cards I’ve been teaching for Memory Box! This one is part of the Christmas Elegance class.

The Standing Deer Oval Frame die cut in metallic gold card-stock takes center stage in a winter wonderland created with the Forest Clearing Oval Frame die, the Country Hills Oval Frame die, the Cheery Cardinals die and poppystamps Delicate Holly Frame die. (links below)

The sentiment is from poppystamps Christmas Greetings stamp set, stamped and embossed in gold on a strip of vellum.

A CAS Memory Box Merry Christmas card…

August 1, 2016August 2, 2016 Pam Sparks26 Comments

I fell in love with this Memory Box Fancy Merry Christmas Channel die when I saw it. I want to try using it in a Winter scene but just playing around with dies I had laying on my desk, I made this. The Memory Box Snowflake Scrollwork Sleeve die cut twice, makes up the top and bottom border pieces on the card front.

You could easy slide a family photo or gift card in for a fun presentation. Fast to make too!

I added a few glitter domes (SLS has the larger size HERE, I do love them, especially the red and white) but any fun embellishment would work. Have you seen the new Nuvo Crystal Drops? Video about them at the link. I want them all! lol And now Ranger has 12 colors of Enamel Accents! waahhhh… can I have them all?! I’m excited about these because I do love the enamel dots ‘thing’. Remember when we were ga ga over brads?! I do still love them but, I forget to use them!
