Hello stampers. I am packing to fly back to Canada today but I just had to share with you this gorgeous card using the new Sophisticated Sled bundle. Oh how I love this bundle. It reminds me of my childhood on the farm where we had a sled just like this and where I sometimes went skating on the frozen creek in the valley on our farm. Do you have favourite childhood Christmas memories? Do they perhaps involve a sled and a pair of skates?
Sophisticated Sled Bundle
Not only are there great stamps in this set, but there are also dies that are independent of the stamps giving you even more creative versatility. Here is a photo of all the pieces that I made before doing a Stamping Through My Stash video as well as various shots of the completed card. I think this one is scheduled for sometime in September while I am traipsing across Nova Scotia with Gerard and visiting with my son Oliver and his wife Laura.
Inspiration
I have made this type of fun fold before, but I was inspired this time by the beautiful work of JilliBling
Be sure to check out her beautiful blog for more inspiration. I love this style of card because it really showcases your patterned paper and provides a stunning focal point for your intricate die creations. We will be making a version of this card at my St Jacobs Fall Retreat and there will be a complete pdf tutorial available in September! Stay tuned!!
Video Guide
Here is a short YouTube video to give you an even greater appreciation of this Sophisticated Sled bundle. I love ingenious way that the skates are but together with three separate dies!! Find my channel here so you stay up to date with my creations.
