Happy Sunday Crafty Friends! Priscilla here from the Kat Scrappiness Design Team. Today I am sharing a holiday card that showcases two of the new dies in the Kat Scrappiness Winter Release and also features my favorite pattern of all – buffalo check plaid. This time of year . . . it’s everywhere!
- I decided to cut down the slimline mountains to a mini-slimline size, so I first cut out all the mountain dies from Neenah cardstock and then ink blended the mountains and trees with Distress inks. I wanted some dimension on the snow peaks of the mountains, so I decided to try out the new Deco Topping Marble-First Snow media from Kat Scrappiness. I loved how this turned out – it looks like packs of snow on the snow peaks!
- I then ink blended the background card panel with blue distress inks and glued the mountains onto the card panel using Bearly Art Glue. I popped the trees with foam tape. I then cut off the excess scene to match up to the mini-slimline card base. I then added some white splatter for a snowy scene using white acrylic paint.
- I then cut out the flying Santa from The Night Before Christmas Window Scene dies with black glitter cardstock. I then popped Santa above the mountains using foam tape so he flying in the sky.
- I then used the Happy Holidays sentiment from the Reindeer Games Sentiment stamp set and white embossed the sentiment on a piece of red cardstock I had in my stash. I cut the sentiment down to a strip and popped the sentiment onto the card base with foam tape.
- I then added some Sparkling Snow Pearl Mix embellishments to add the extra sparkle to my card before gluing the card panel onto a mini slimline card base.

- Die-cut the mason jar outline from heavy cardstock several times. I used heavy kraft cardstock and I cut 6 outlines.
- Die-cut the solid portion of the mason jar twice from acetate.
- Adhere acetate to the top of one outline die-cut, the bottom of one outline die-cut and set them aside to dry completely if using a liquid adhesive.
- Using the remaining die-cut pieces, adhere them together and adhere to the bottom die-cut that has acetate adhered to the top. This will create your shaker base. Allow to dry completely if using liquid adhesive.
- Once the layers are dry, add your shaker bits. I used the Holiday Bliss Mix for my ornament.
- Adhere the top of the shaker (acetate is adhered to the bottom of the die-cut layer) to the base and allow to dry.
- Die-cut the “fabric” piece from your favorite patterned paper and the jar band from your favorite metallic paper. I used the Gobble Gobble 6 x 6 Paper Pad.
- Prior to adhering the “fabric” and band, wrap a piece of jute around the top of the mason jar and tie it to create a hanger.
- I added two banners and hand wrote the year on one of them, adhered them down and then added the “fabric” piece and jar band.
- Add a simple bow and any other desired embellishments.
- stamp the images on some Neenah Classic Crest Solar white card stock. It is really helpful if you have the Misti stamping tool to get a really nice impression of your stamped images.
- color the images in with alcohol markers (or any medium of your choice). I color mine with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers.
- die-cut the image(s) using the coordinating die(s) with your die-cutting machine. Secure the dies by using Pixie Tape so they don’t shift while die-cutting.
- ink-blend a panel of some Bristol smooth white card stock with Distress Oxide Inks and blending brushes. Keep blending until they have a smooth transition between the colors.
- die-cut the ink-blended panel using the Birch Tree With Cardinal Backdrop Die.
- use the same Birch Tree With Cardinal Backdrop Die to die-cut some Neenah Classic Crest Solar white card stock. Adhere this panel on some A2-size notecard with foam adhesive for added dimension.
- in-lay the ink-blended pieces on the card with Bearly Arts Precision Glue.
- use your alcohol marker to add some lines to the Birch Tree for added texture.
- adhere the focal images to the card.
- finish the card design by stamping the sentiment from the Santa’s Helper Stamp Set.
- Die cut the checked paper from the Kat Scrappiness Reindeer Games 6×6 Paper Pad using the Deco Frame Nesting Die. I trimmed a smidge off of each side so that the card base would show on the edges. Adhere it to the front of an A2, top folding, white card.
- Using the Kat Scrappiness Nesting Fish Tail Banner Dies, die cut a banner out of white cardstock. Adhere the banner to the front of the card as shown.
- Stamp the elf and the sentiment from the NEW Kat Scrappiness Santa’s Helper Stamp Set onto white paper with black ink. Color the elf with markers. I used Copic markers for mine but you could color it in with any type of medium you might have. I also embellished the image with some white gel pen for the polka dots on the presents and silver glitter glue for the bells on his shoes.
- With the Santa’s Helper Coordinating Dies, die cut the elf and the sentiment. Using foam adhesive, adhere the elf onto the banner. Adhere the sentiment underneath with liquid glue.
- Using a clear sparkle pen, color over the hat and the red shirt for some sparkle and shine. Add glossy accents to the socks and green bow.
- To complete the card, add some red and green sequins using the Kat Scrappiness Glitter Sequin Mix-Christmas and the card is complete.

Hi everyone, it’s Tina here. I have a holiday card to share with you which can be used as a New Year’s Card using the Snowflake Trio Dies. Below are the steps to create your own card.
Step 1 – Trim White Cardstock to 7″ x 6″, score at 3 1/2″ and fold in half for a vertical side fold card. (Mini Slimline)
Step 2 – Trim White Glitter Cardstock to 3 1/4″ x 5 3/4″. Diecut Snowflake Trio using the 2 largest dies on the trimmed White Glitter Cardstock. Keep the diecuts and adhere the panel to the card front using Bearly Art Precision Glue. Diecut the Snowflakes Trio using White Glitter Cardstock and Silver Matte Cardstock in various sizes. Using Bearly Art Precision Glue adhere the Silver Matte diecuts, then top it with the White Glitter diecuts.
Step 3 – Adhere Silver Pearl Mix to the center of the Snowflakes using Bearly Art Precision Glue.
Step 4 – Diecut Joy with Shadow (Joy using Silver Matte Cardstock and Shadow using White Cardtock). Assemble and adhere to card using Bearly Art Precision Glue.
This card can be used for several occasions by simply changing the sentiment. For example, use Happy Birthday sentiment for someone who celebrates their birthday in the Winter Season. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Happy Wednesday everyone. It’s Caren here on the blog today. Do you give gift cards during the holidays? I always ending up giving a couple of gift cards. Today I’m sharing several gift card holders I created with the Gift Card Pocket die. What I love about this die is that you can use as it or attach it to a card, package, and gifts.

Hi friends! Kim here with you today, and I am sharing a project that is not a card! I wanted to show how versatile the amazing dies are! First, I would love to know if you create handmade gifts or not.
Rather than creating a card, I used the Mason Jar Shaker Card Dies to create an ornament. I had seen an advertisement for a wood shaker ornament somewhere, and I immediately thought that I could recreate it using these dies.
Here are the instructions for creating the ornament:
