Quilted Top Note Christmas Card

I’ve been seeing lots of the gorgeous quilted cards done with squares of patterned paper and the Big Shot Top Note die.  I decided to grab out a pack of DSP, my 1 1/4″ square punch and give it a go. 

Here’s my festive version ….

Some Steps:

For those of you who like the step by step instructions – here goes.  I punched squares from the patterned paper then sponged the edges of each square with Baja Breeze ink.  I coated a piece of cardstock with glue (the Anywhere Glue Stick pg 154 makes this easy) and glued on the 12 squares.  Then cut out my shape using the Top Note Die.  I sponged the edges and added some snowflakes from the Snow Swirled stamp set – once again using Baja Breeze ink.

I embossed the greeting – Heard From The Heart stamp set and white embossing powder.  I also embossed the dove from A Wish For Peace stamp set onto vellum cardstock and cut that out.   I attached him with glue dots.

I stamped the base card with some more snowflakes using white craft ink, then added some dots of glitter using the 2 Way Glue Pen and Dazzling Diamonds.  Popped some white taffeta ribbon on and added the Top Note shape and all done.

And once more in green.

Cheers, Sue
