I loved all of Tim's new Christmas dies from Sizzix this year! This set of Big Tidings is the first of them to come home with me, and I made a card with each of the big words, first in traditional colors and a woodsy theme.
supplies: cream, Lipstick Red, and green cardstock, woodgrain and buffalo plaid patterned papers, Big Tidings (word, shadow, and bow), Mini Holiday Greens (pine sprigs), and Funky Festive (berry sprigs) dies, sentiment sticker from Idea-ology Christmas 2023 sticker book
And the second is in frosty cool colors.
supplies: white, glitter white, 2 shades of aqua cardstock, Tim Holtz Big Tidings Noel and star dies, Plaid stencil, sentiment from his collaboration with Simon Says Stamp in 2013, pine needles distress ink, a retired snowflake folder
I really liked the effect that stencilling on the words has - got that idea from several of Tim's Makers when this set was first introduced last month.
So many wonderful possibilites with this new set of dies!
Using the plaid on the words is a terrific idea! The font on these is kind of funky and retro. Love it!
ReplyDeleteAnd, as always, I love your wood grain paper and the snowflake background.
Two great cards with the Big Tidings dies, Lin! Love the patterns and textures!!
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful, Lin! I like the country look the plaid letters give them!
ReplyDeleteA pair of striking cards Lin. I love the way you have used the big word dies with the stencilling on them.
