Cheesy Christmas

Happy Friday, DT Annalisa here! Today I’m sharing a cheesy Christmas card featuring the Merry Cheesemas stamp set and the Say Cheese Cover Plate Die. I love that I was able to use a non-traditional Christmas colour for the background of this project!

I began with watercolour paper and a mix of Squeezed Lemonade, Scattered Straw, and Rusty Hinge Distress Inks, along with Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide. I pressed the inks onto my glass mat, spritzed them with water, and then swiped and pressed the paper into the colour. I heat-set the panel between layers to build depth and texture.

Once the panel was dry, I die-cut it with the Say Cheese Cover Plate Die. I adhered the panel to a card base with double-sided foam tape and used liquid glue to secure the small cheese-hole pieces in place.

Next, I stamped several images from the Merry Cheesemas stamp set, coloured them with Copics, and cut them out using my Brother ScanNCut SDX125e. I added highlights with a white Gelly Roll pen. The mistletoe image is from It's Penguin-ing to Look A Lot Like Christmas, the heart is from Seasons Tweetings, and the red stocking is from Santa’s Nice List.

I added sparkle to some of the images using a Quickie Glue Pen and Lawn Fawn Prisma Glitter, then adhered everything to the card with liquid glue.
