Laurie's Fabulous Favorites #14

I am joining  Laurie Schmidlin this week as she shares her inlaid die cut technique.
The challenge is to create a project utilizing this creative technique and join along at the Ink To Paper Blog HERE.

I cut PTI's Bold Borders-Yuletide die plate out of green and white cardstocks.  I inlaid the white border and the green sentiment.  The iridescent sequins and Wink Of Stella on the "Be Merry" add a bit of festive shimmer and shine, eh?
 Note to self:  add the WOS to sentiment before adhering it onto the card panel with spray glue :-)

Once I decided on a design and die cuts to use (like a 2 hour process-LOL), this card came together pretty quickly.
I will definitely make a few of these mailable Christmas cards with different color combos this year.

I used a favorite flower embossing folder from Sizzix for my Beautiful Butterflies to flutter over on Kraft cardstock. 
The peachy colored HB die picks up the small peach dots on the patterned butterflies. 
Thought the crystal sequins added just a touch of bling 😀

I made a Christmas card with my line of trees stamp by using the Christmas Words embossing folder on the base card.  
There is Wink of Stella sparkle on the bare tree branches to add to the winter scene also.
