I managed to get several cards in - amazing how quickly playing Christmas music in the background gets your creative juices flowing, anyone else?!?

I love these gorgeous new Ornament Layering Stencils - I actually put in a wish for layering ornament stencils, and these fabulous things were the result! And... coordinating dies just make them that much better! I stenciled them in a bright and happy color scheme, and die cut with the Coordinating dies. I saved the "Merry Christmas" word at the bottom of the stencils for another card later.

I layered the branch and ornaments on a circle (it is actually leftover negative space from the final card I'm sharing today - from the Happy Holidays Circle Frame die). I used foam adhesive for lots of fun dimension.

Background is one of the gorgeous new hot foil plates - Diamond Hot Foil Plate - that I know is going to be fabulous as a staple for much more than holiday cards! I also trimmed it down using the largest Stitched Rectangles die. I added the circle with more foam adhesive to continue on the feeling of dimension.

Mounted everything on a coordinating green cardbase, added a few sparkly jewels on the ornaments, and around the edges, and finished off with a sentiment from the new (and AMAZING!) Perfect Sentiments: Holiday hot foil and coordinating die. I also added a secondary sentiment from Thrill of Hope stamp set.

Another item from this release that I made a wish for some time back - layering tree stencils! The new Wintry Forest is SOOO fun and amazing! I can't wait to stencil it in ALL the colors!

For my first card with it, I thought it would be fun to just use one single ink color, and do each layer of the trees in gradually deeper tones with the same ink. I chose Olive for this first try - and LOVE how it came out!

Once I stenciled the trees, I used the final layer to add white embossing paste for a bit of texture, and added some gold splatters for sparkle. I then popped it behind a Blanket Stitched Oval to create a window, and mounted it on a deeper green cardbase.

I used another one of those Perfect Sentiments: Holiday, again popped up with foam adhesive, and as before, another secondary sentiment from Thrill of Hope stamp set, heat embossed in white on black, and trimmed into a banner shape.

Final touch on this card is a few Metallic Gold Pearls to coordinate with the gold splatters!

And finally - more happy and non-traditional colors!

The base of this card is some aqua cardstock with the new Diagonal Stripes hot foil plate over it with Prism hot foil - the color of this foil is pretty much silver with a hint of reflective rainbow hints. Sooo pretty!

I added the new Happy Holidays Circle frame, stenciled in soft colors, and then stamped over the top and heat embossed in gold. I love that the sentiments have a coordinating die as well!

The secondary sentiment I just heat embossed on a strip of colored cardstock, and then finished off with a few more Metallic Gold Pearls.

To add the dimension to these pieces, I die cut them 3 times, and layered together instead of using foam adhesive. Just gave me a bit more of a stable piece, and easier than trimming down lots of little pieces of foam tape!
