Supplies: Paper - Park Lane A2 card; Paper Studio green;
Penny Black Holiday Trimmings
Dies - Hero Arts Nesting Circle Infinity Dies;
A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set
Embossing Folder - Sizzix Christmas Tree Pattern
Other - Taylored Expressions sentiment stickers (retired)
I first tried the ef using a piece of lime green heavyweight cardstock die cut into a stitched rectangle. I matted it with a darker green and added to a yet a different green A2 card with a strip of Penny Black paper. Added a Taylored Expression sentiment label (from a kit a few years ago) matted onto a die cut circle of the dark green. Done - very quick and easy!
Next I made another card for the HeroFest Holiday Cheer Card Drive. This time I embossed a stitched rectangle I'd die cut from TH jewel metallic paper. I sanded it a bit but it didn't turn out as pretty as I'd hoped, oh well. I added some glitter strips to another PB panel and used the Christmas Holidays Stamp & Cut XL die again (green shadow with the turquoise metallic topper). Added a snowflake from Sunny Studio and an Altenew enamel dot (thanks to Diva sister Cindy for sending them!). Another quick and easy card.
I'm adding my Joy card to Darnell's October NBUS Challenge since my ef is new, and the Happy Holidays card to Stay Crafty with a Blog Named Hero's October Challenge Merry Everything.
Thanks for stopping by!!

Linda, loving your creations for your Christmas card stash and cheer drive. That EF is fabulous.
By a strange coincidence I have just acquired that EF too, not on discount for me though, shame. It is just fabulous and I love how you have used it here. It goes so well with that paper and it is green so it ticks all my boxes xx
That’s a beauty of an EF, I really love the deep impression on the zingy lime green. Two lovely cards Linda!
Terrific design that can easily be used to create very different cards. Great find from Tuesday Morning!
I like those embossed trees, these are terrific!
That is an extraordinarily beautiful embossing folder. The effect is impressive, edited or not.
