Food coma...

it's real!  But I'm thankful for my friends in The Group of Seven Cardmakers who quite often steer my path back to creativity!  Thanks, ladies!

I have two cards using their current technique: Textured Backgrounds using Die-cuts.  First, I had that wonderful pine branch my friend Bonnie gifted me when I visited her - it was easier to adhere them using SSS Micro Dot sheets as they are so very fine!  Any residual 'stickiness' was dealt with using my powder tool.


I found a pretty foiled sentiment made at Marcia's house long ago
in my sentiment stash - it's foiled in red... I'll show that in a moment!
The set is from The Greetery and called Opposites Attract: Holiday [2021]

Every single card made by the team was gorgeous, but I loved
Susan's stars and found a nested set in my stash that had not been used this year.
I'm not even sure where I found them, but they are made by Ellentina.


Those stars were making me think of wishes and so wishing I did!
This one in die-cut glittery form is SSS c. 2015!
I think I'll save this one for my granddaughter whose birthday is just
after Christmas!

Thank you to each and every member of The Group of Seven for making my gloomy, cold, and snowy day brighter!

Gorgeous! I've enjoyed this technique with various dies, but it seems especially fun with smaller dies. You have a beautiful Christmas card, and the stars with a simple "wishing" is brilliant!
