Christmas Sampler

 

I've been enjoying the stencil sets that came with my Greetery order, and played

with Christmas Sampler done with several color ways.

Redwork is a favorite. I have done quilts in red  and white, and even collected red and

white transferware. Decided to put it on a card, and the sampler was a perfect way to see

if I could keep to all reds. With the exception of the cabin, I came pretty close!

I put the sweet little fir die cuts in the top corners, just to dress the card up a bit. The 

frame is from an old PTI die that cut a much more detailed edge. I only used the 

very outside edge, not wanting to hide any of the sweet detail.

Once I got started with this stencil set, I couldn't stop!

There's a blue one...

One done on some textured Kraft, with white ink for stencil one...

...and one die cut  withAida cloth die, which simulates embroidery cloth.

Betsy included some shaker elements in her release, and they fit perfectly on the

sweet little cabin.

4 Christmas cards to add to my stash, but honestly, still way behind!

Happy Holidays my friends!
