Today marks the last day of the previews for The Craft's Meow Holiday Release, but tomorrow there are more chances to see all sets in action with the Blog Hop! There are two sets to introduce today, the first being Inside Christmas, designed by me.
This holiday themed set is geared towards completing your holiday cards with a greeting inside, however, it can be beautiful too on its own, taking center stage on the outside of a card as I have done. I simply gathered some May Arts Sheer Ribbon in Silver and White and added some snowflake cutouts to compliment my stamped greeting. "May your Christmas sparkle with moments of love and laughter, and the year ahead be full of contentment and joy." Before stamping the greeting, I sprayed the card base with sheer mist. (This set is free gift with a $60 purchase at The Craft's Meow, or can also be purchased separately.)
Next up is a set called Holiday Poinsettia, designed by Nina B. I stamped and embossed the image in black, lightly colored it with markers, fussy cut it and then painted the petals with some pink glitter. I backed this onto a kraft card base that had been stamped with the same image in black (twice) above the sentiment from the same set, and finished the card with a layer of May Arts Black Crotchet Ribbon and Pink Burlap String.
Please stop by The Craft's Meow Blog for more inspiration, as well as for a chance to win these two sets!
