Hi there - Jean Okimoto here with a simple Christmas design for you today. It's Make Merry time with Birds of a Feather and the new Woodland Oval die.
- NEW Open Studio Make Merry Die Set 30062
- NEW Open Studio We Wish You Die Set 30064 ("christmas" attached inside the card)
- NEW Woodland Oval Die 99185
- Open Studio Rectangle Layers Die Set 30033
- Pool Distressed Dots Signature Pattern
Hope you like the contrast of the sparkly red glittered craft foam birds and the plush red velvet greeting. The Pool Distressed Dots Signature Pattern creates the illusion of a soft snowy background. Attach everything to a 5" x 7" card of crisp white cardstock. Add gold sequins...and that's it!
A special note to Jenny-the-stamping-engineer and the other great students....yes FIVE gold sequins, not my usual three!
Please visit our Ideas Gallery for additional details - and more holiday designs.

Thanks for stopping by...see you again next week!

This looks great, and not too hard, either! I'm impressed with the ones you make with 'expected' colors!!

Thanks Jan - these are great dies! You can spook the Woodland Oval up with the Swirling Ghosts for Halloween.
