I created a card where I die cut an oval and used the Tim Holtz Tree layering stencil with Pine Needles and Bundled Sage Distress inks, then I used the Ranger Texture paste and a pallet knife using the snow portion of the stencil. I love these 2 part stencils! I layered everything up on cut cardstocks and pattern papers from the kit.

Debby Hughes worked her magic with her coloring. She stamped her Santa onto an oval die cut of cream cardstock, colored the image and added her greeting, then set everything onto a holly background.

Heather Hoffman created a card using the tree stencil Pine Needles and Bundled Sage Distress inks and grit paste from the kit. She also layered up her card using the cardstocks and and pattern papers and finished the card up with a die cut deer.

The Swell Christmas stamp set and Retro Deer Die are also available for individual purchase in our store!
