Hi there!

Welcome to Day 27 of LucieG’s Christmas in July 2024 and today I have a fourfer to share. Fourfer… is that even a word?! Ah well you know what I mean!

The idea for the cards popped into my head last night when I was looking for base card for my pinecone sprig. I tried some Tonic Studio speciality paper – it wasn’t right but I vowed to use it today… well I certainly did that! The tree images are from a set by Marianne Designs that I got a few years ago. I think I can safely say that I really don’t need that coverplate/tree die set that I was thinking about at the start of the month!

 

For my first card, I cut some black card with the fabulous Heffydoodle background die and added a generous amount of ink splatters! After I had arranged all my trees, I used Scattered Straw distress stickles to ground my little forest.

For my second card I used an Alex Syberia background die. I toyed with adding a sentiment but decided to keep it very CAS!

For my third card, I embossed the background with a favourite Sizzix folder – I just love those little deep embossed trees.

And last, but not least is my fourth card – I used an older My Favorite Things sentiment die for this one- and some more gold splatters!

So which one do you prefer?

Thanks for stopping by!

LucieG.
