Filigree Frame Embossing Folder | Stamp, Scrap & Create with Me

I have always liked cardinals – it goes back to my childhood growing up in Wisconsin when they were a rare sight during the winter. And so I enjoy seeing that spot of bright color all year long here in the North Georgia Mountains.

I made today’s card using the Festival of Trees Bundle (137640). After all who can resist a stamp set that has a coordinating punch, right? LOL. And of course this cute little cardinal made it a must on my wish list.

I’ve used the Nordic Noel Designer Series Paper for my color pallet and the Real Red 3/8″ Satin Woven Ribbon (135840) found in the Holiday Catalog on page 15. It has such a wonderful feel and ties beautifully. You’re so going to love it when you work with it!

And here is another card that I made using the same basic items – I’ve just added the Filigree Frame Embossing Folder (13518) to the mix.

How did I create the little tree? I’ve used the negative space created when I punched out the tree first. Simply take a piece of Real Red card stock (102482) and punch out the tree then I punched a circle around the tree by using the 2″ Circle Punch (133782). I layered this on top of my Nordic Noel Designer Series Paper and Garden Green 2 1/12″ Circle.

Cool trick right?
