HO HO HO Merry Christmas! I know, I know… it’s early! Still…it’ll be nice to have a stash of cards and ideas before the last minute!
Here’s the NEW Memory Box Christmas Ribbon Ornaments die…soon to be HERE!
I broke out the glitter… haha… the Clear Rock Candy Distress Glitter HERE works great for this! It’s not getting all over everything after! YAY! THIS would work also… pretty!
I die cut the ornaments with Scor Tape HERE on the right side of the Memory Box card-stocks. Peeled off the release paper, dumped on glitter, dumped it off and burnished it on with a bone folder (place a piece of scrap paper on top of the glittered piece and rub). All without getting it all over me!!!
After you have your pieces cut and glittered, I lay the main piece right side down on the table, then place the pieces in right side down. I used Scotch tape this time but you could easy use ⅛ th or ¼ th inch scor tape too.
If you’re mounting it with mounting squares like I did, the scotch tape works because you don’t need the double stick.
If you are adhering the design directly to the card, scor tape would work great instead of scotch tape.

Here’s a couple Baby cards. We welcomed Leo to our family in December and Rogan the 1st of June!
I LOVE the Winnie and Walter clear stamp sets HERE! For this card I used the Big, Bold and the Happy set. I stamped with Versafine Black Ink.
Just darling! lol I love the gingham pea! I used Memory Box A Pea in the Pod die HERE, Geneva Vine die HERE, Urban Upper and Lower Alphabets HERE and HERE and the poppystamps Classic Ribbons die HERE.
Now to finish up the insides and get them mailed! eek, I am so bad about that! So tickled with how these two cards turned out… Cute! Don’t you love it when you’re happy with what you make?! lol Memory Box and poppystamps…a great combo! Win, win!
My baby cards were in the Favorites this week at Splitcoast Stampers! Thank you ladies!

Once again you outdid yourself with the little pea pod cards. As others have said, they are adorable and the little “face” gives the cards that special, unique touch.
Love them both but the baby card is absolute cuteness – how original. TFS.

I love your cardmaking but what happened to using stamps? As I see it all these die cuts are another way to get crafters to spend more money.
The Christmas card is done in my favorite colors together. And GLTTER !!!! I am glad you found a way to use it without getting it all over. The baby cards are precious.
Oh my! So sparkly! :)) lovely and soft colours tone!
Thanks for playing with us at Dies R Us Challenge this time. Wish to see you again next challenge!
