I have made a fun card using the wonderful Mitten Garland embossing folder from this release. I think that embossing folders are so versatile. So many ways to play with them! I have used the mitten dies that come with the folder to make a fun and festive card. 
I began with an A2 size card base made from smooth with card stock. I then used another piece of white cardstock and ran it through the Mitten Garland embossing folder and used the coordinating mitten dies to cut out each mitten from the panel. I then colored the mittens in using copic markers and a white detail gel pen to add extra highlights.
I then took the embossing folder and inked up the flat inside with distress oxide. I added the ink directly to the folder with the ink pad and also used a brayer to smooth it out. I add another piece of white cardstock and ran it through the die cut machine. I added the copic colored die cut mittens to the front of the inked panel.
I wrapped some natural twine around the inked panel a few times and tied on a tiny tag that I had stamped my sentiment onto and adhered the whole panel to the card base.

I hope you are enjoying your time hopping with us today and getting lots of inspiration! There is even more if you visit the Season of Wonder gallery.

  2. Super fun and super cute! They look so soft and fuzzy! My Nana would make us all mittens each year and then she would tuck $1 bill into each thumb--what a treat! (back in the 60's that was a lot of dough for a child lol)
