Christmas Market Collection-Day 1

Hi there! Today I’m joining The Greetery to introduce the gorgeous new Christmas Market Collection.

My first project featuring the Cocoa Cozy product suite. This is such a fun bundle that includes a stamp, die, stencil as well as an embossing folder. I used the 3D Winter Mitts Embossing Folder with Buttercream cardstock. I used the coordinating Winter Mitts Stencil to add some shading to the snowflakes using Buttercream ink. I stamped the mittens with Sorbet ink and die cut them along with the cup of cocoa using the Cocoa Cozy Dies. I stamped the sentiment with Poppy ink using the Cocoa Cozy Stamp Set. I also put the white die cut mitten cuffs back into the embossing folder to give them that sweater texture.

The Greetery-Cocoa Cozy

Next up is the Shortbread product suite. Here I used the Shortbread Shaped Rectangle Dies as well as the Shortbread Shapes: Rectangle Embossing Folder to give the texture. I masked off each cookie to blend separate colors on each one. I also blended some Buttercream onto the cookie tray. I embossed the sentiment using the Simple Holiday Sentiments Stamp Set. I also added a few vellum sprigs using the older Rosemary & Berry die set along with a few gems and enamel dots.

The Greetery-Shortbread

Here I used the Shortbread Shapes Rectangle Labels Dies. I die cut two tags out of Eucalyptus & Buttercream cardstock. I added an embossed cookie using the Shortbread Shaped Rectangle Dies & Shortbread Shapes: Rectangle Embossing Folder. I blended Buttercream ink on the cookie and added some bows and greenery using the Ornamental Tag Die with matte gold, Avocado & Artichoke cardstock.

The Greetery-Shortbread Tag

Next up is my most favorite product bundle of the release, the Market Place product suite.

This first card features the Market Place Mini Die Set. I used several shades of solid colored cardstock and added the sentiment banner with matte gold.

The Greetery-Mini Market Place

Next is a cute favor box using the Market Place No. 2 Die. I used Eucalyptus, Poppy & Buttercream cardstock and also the Market Place Holiday Festoons Die Set to add the wreaths and garland. I used the Market Place Holiday Stamp Set for the Mistletoe Market sign. This fits perfectly onto the Arch Box Large Die.

Here is a video showing how I created the Market Place projects.
