C.C. Blog — Quad Collage Die
The Warmth of Friendship
Posted by DESIGN TEAM
Hello everyone and Happy New Year! Today I am sharing with you a project using a Christmas stamp set as not Christmas. The Christmas Time stamps and dies (Meoples, my favorite!), looks fabulous paired with the new Slimline Winter Scene dies (yep, you don't have to use all the pieces in a slimine design!). The stars in the Quad Collage die work perfectly with this combination (and check out how they are asymmetrical, perfect to give the illusion of twinkling).Have fun creating!

Hello! Larisa here and today, I have a sweet little fairytale card for you featuring the NEW Ella Swissie stamp from CC Designs. For my card, I used the Quad Collage die to create my background. I also used the grass from the Cloud and Grass Die set to create my grassy hills. Once I had my background created using patterned paper, I moved on to my little castle tower and added a little pumpkin in front of it. Then I popped my image in front with some foam tape and added my sentiment to the top. Such a sweet...

I stamped out Oscar, then covered him with masking paper, and stamped my trees, shrubs, and flowers. Then I colored the whole piece using Copic markers. To create my card, I mounted my scene on a die cut scalloped rectangle, added it to some...
