I'm delighted to be Guest Designer over at Day of the Month Card Club challenge blog for the above challenge.
Now this really got me thinking as I really don't have any suitable stamps - however I remembered I do have the Tim Holtz Fresh Baked dies from years ago which haven't been used in a long time. I decided to go with the biscuit one which felt more fitting for the theme.
I started by using a set of Tim Holtz stamps called Tiny Text Christmas and I used the whole set of individual stamps to create the background. I then added some Adhesive Burlap paper which I found in a local craft shop. What a find that was! I die cut the cookie and inked the edges and added the snowflake in white to look like icing. I cut out a variety of Tim Holtz Holiday Greens Thinlets in cardstock and old book papers and inked with Distress Inks.
I added some extra pretty berry paper top and bottom. The sentiments are from Tim Holtz Ideaology for a few years ago. The little candy stick is from my stash and I coloured it red and white. The sentiment stickers are from a TH Ideaology sticker book.
I'm adding this into the following challenges -
Double Trouble - layers
Crafty Calendar - AG
Paper Funday - AG
Daisy Chain Challenge - Christmas
The holly and Ivy - AG
