Christmas bells with snow!

Hello to all!

Time to share another DT post for Expressions Craft Stamps!

What would be Christmas be like without the sound of Christmas bells and some snow? So I am featuring Christmas bells on this card to ring the holidays!


I started by stencilling the bells using DI and added snowflakes on them using snow paste.  Fussy cut them.


On a pretty plaid PP, I added a sentiment. and covered it with colored vellum sheet. Now die cut a stitched border and adhered it to the vellum sheet. Using the stencil I added some snowflakes on the vellum sheet by mixing some sparkly dots to snow paste.

A view from a different angle:


Die cut some pine boughs. Now arranged all the elements on my card base. Adhered my Christmas bells using pop dots and a string. Finished it with a tiny bow and some rhinestones. And in the last added some more snow paste to pine bough and at the edges of the card base to create some more textures and festive look!

Here is the matching inside!

Cardstocks: Heavy white CS, Bottle green textured CS and deco green color vellum sheet
