Hello everyone!

Welcome to Day 2 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2023! Today I’m playing along with this week’s Color Throwdown challenge.

As soon as I saw the combo. I envisaged some brightly coloured Christmas trees! After looking at every single tree die in my collection, I chose the fabulous Pointed Evergreens die by Simon Says Stamp that I got a few months ago. I cut it from several different inky panels and black cardstock. When I assembled the die cut, I offset the black card slightly to give a shadow effect.

I felt a black background would be more dramatic so I embossed a panel with the Simon Says Stamp Delicate Pine Branches folder and then adhered the trio of trees. I really wanted to add a sentiment that sais ‘have a colourful Christmas’, but O couldn’t find one – I am positive there is one in my collection.. and when I find it, I will be adding it to this card. In the meantime, I used a sentiment by My Favorite Things.

Thanks for stopping by!

LucieG.
