Hi there friends, I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! As the days march on and we’re now into Christmas Panic mode, I have a layered Christmas Card to share using layering dies from the Chantilly Paper Lace Collection. You know how I love layering dies together and so here’s a combo I hope you enjoy!
I’m also popping in today with a couple of reminders:

Stacking Your Layering Dies:
From the bottom up, here is how I constructed my card. On the card base I used Lunette Arched Borders – they were cut as an inlay and for interest I lined the inside of my card with Desert Storm Cardstock. On top of that I layered Hemstitch Ovals in a contrasting color. For the next layer up I added Tallulah Frill; interestingly it fits nicely because the curved decorative edges match the curve of Hemstitch Ovals and the Lunette Arched Borders. Last but not least, I added the rounded badge shape from Annabelle’s Trousseau – it perfectly fit the sweet Quietfire Design sentiment I selected – Have Yourself a Merry Little Flourished Tree.
I normally tape my bows in place on the sides using the long tails. This time around the tails are neatly hidden because of the liner sheet I used for contrast; bonus!

Amazing!
Absolutely beautiful. Trying to learn the secret of layering your dies! I getting better.
I love the Chantilly Lace collection and the Hemstitch, too. Hope more hemstitch-like designs come out! This is the only time I’ve paid FULL PRICE for a die set but it was definitely a must have. So tired of cutsie animals, the elegant lace designs are much more my style. Cheers, Becca! ??
