With the early release of a new bundle, I thought I'd share with you all something I've made using some of it.
This new bundle is called Quite curvy bundle which consists of a stampset and dies, but there is also a really lovely christmas stampset called Curvy Christmas that goes with this, and there are quite a few of the stamps that could be used all year round and not just for christmas. There is also a bundle (which I've forgotten to include in the product list) which is called Quite curvy variety bundle - 158396 and this has everything in it including a Classic Christmas 6" x 6" dsp pack which is really pretty.
So let's move on to the project and show you how easy this card is to acheive.

Card recipe:
1. Cut all of your pieces of cardstock and dsp. Score and burnish the cardbase piece and die cut the dsp piece.
2. Using the real red ink stamp the stars image to the piece for the inside of the card and glue flat into card using wet glue.
3. Now with the other whisper white piece of card, place the top piece of the die cut dsp to the top and just mark with pencil, where the curve is but don't glue it in place yet, remove it. Using the versamark ink stamp the stars image again (make sure it is clean after using the red ink as it will stain your versamark if not) under the markings you've made in pencil, sprinkle the embossing powder over the image and shake off any excess, now use the heat tool to set the powder.
4. Glue flat the 2 x pieces of dsp on to the cardstock, glue this flat again onto the real red piece and glue the whole piece flat to the front of the cardbase.
5. Die cut all the poinsettias etc, curl them up a bit to make them look realistic, using the poky bit of the take your pick tool, glue all the layers together and then glue it flat to the card.
6. Stamp the sentiment and glue the two pieces of card for it together flat.
7. Tie a double bow and using a thread (the one I've used has unfortunately retired but any thread will do) tie the jingle bell to the bow and then glue to the card using glue dots.
8. Glue the sentiment into place flat and place 3 x gems on to the card - 1 for the middle of the poinsettia.
Card finished.
Hope you liked what I've shared with you today, I was really pleased with how it turned out and I think it would look lovely made in different colours too.
