Looking Back Divinity Designs November 2019 Release

Good morning, friends...happy Friday!  Today I have several projects to share using products from the Divinity Designs November 2019 Release. 

My first project is an adorable Milk Carton Holder filled with Milk Cartons full of coffee treats!

Creative Nugget:  The Milk Carton Holder and Milk Carton with Layers Dies were used to create this wonderful little gift.  The layers were cut from papers from the Latte Love Paper Pad. 

The Coffee Heartbeat Die was used to decorate the front and back panels of the holder.

Different sentiments from the Hug in a Mug Stamp/Die Duo were added to the milk cartons.  The little coffee mug was cut with a Mini Cups & Mugs Die and added to clothespins which were used to hold the milk cartons closed.

My second card uses the new Four Panel Card with Layers Dies and the Christmas Wishes stamp set.

Creative Nugget:  Papers from the Christmas Card Collection 2015 Paper Pad were used to layer each of the panels on the card.  The Christmas Dove Dies were used to cut the layered dove and the Peace & Joy Die was used for the sentiment for the first panel.

Two of the sentiments from the Christmas Wishes stamp set were embossed on panels cut with a Double Stitched Rectangle Die.  These sentiments were added to two of the panels while the Globe and Stand Dies were used to decorate a third panel.

One of the Christmas Card Papers were perfect for the last panel.  Pine Branches Dies were used to cut the pine topper and the Peace & Joy Die was again used to cut the sentiment.

The Four Panel Card also makes a wonderful Christmas decoration!

For my first sample I used the adorable Cheerful Snowmen stamp set designed by Jen Nilsson 

Creative Nugget:  The snowflakes from the Cheerful Snowmen stamp set were randomly stamped around the border of the Stitched panel using coordinating inks.  A die cut frame was mounted to the middle of the panel.  The snowman and bird were colored with Copic Markers and popped onto the card.  The sentiment is from the Christmas Pine stamp set.  A few Sparkletz were added for some bling to finish the card.

My second sample was made with the new Folk Art Snowflakes stamp set designed by Nina Brackett. 

Creative Nugget:  Several of the smaller snowflakes from the Folk Art Snowflakes stamp set were randomly white embossed on a stitched Kraft panel.  White acrylic paint was splattered on the panel.  The largest snowflake was white embossed on textured vellum, fussy cut and popped onto the card.  The sentiment was also white embossed...love the look of white embossing on Kraft card stock.  A few white gems were added to finish the card.

Welcome to the Divinity Designs November 2019 Release

Hello, friends...Happy Friday!  It's the beginning of a new month and time for another fantastic release by Divinity Designs.  This month we are featuring large Christmas sentiments and some wonderful 3-D Dies for creating a fancy fold card and an adorable milk carton holder perfect for gift giving.    

My first sample features the new Christmas Birdhouses Stamp Set and the Four Panel Fold Card with Layers.

Creative Nugget:  The card base and layers were cut with the Four Panel Fold Card with Layers Dies.   Each panel was decorated with papers from the beautiful new Christmas Collection 2019 Paper Pad.

The sentiment from the Christmas Birdhouses Stamp set was split and white embossed on vellum strips cut with the Sentiment Strips Dies.

Long & Lean Letter Dies were used to create the JOY sentiment on the first  panel.    The new Christmas Dove Dies were used to cut the dove on the second panel as well as all of the snowflakes on the card.  

One of the papers from the Christmas Collection 2019 Paper Pad was all that was needed for the third panel.  The Christmas Birdhouses were colored with Copic Markers, cut with a Square Die and mounted to a layer cut with a Scalloped Square Die. Curvy Slopes Dies were used to cut a snow drift and the Peace Border Die was used for the sentiment on the fourth panel. Gems were added to all of the snowflakes to finish the card!

My next project uses the new Keep Christ Stamp Set.

Creative Nugget:  A Square Die was used to cut a window from one of the pretty papers from the Christmas Collection 2019 Paper Pad.  The frame was then popped up onto a white panel with a sentiment from the Keep Christ Stamp Set embossed in silver.  Silver embossing powder was used to make paper from which some of the snowflakes and the Holy Night Die was cut. Snowflakes and gems were added to finish the card.
