Stampin’up! Nests of Winter For The Partial Die Cutting Technique

in 12 weeks of Christmas, Cardmaking on 11/21/24

Hello Crafters, Bonjour!

Well if you watched me on my Facebook Live on November 20th, you know that I wasn’t able to fly out of Regina… Therefore, I didn’t post the pre recorded card and I shifted my live for a new Suite Collection.   I already had this post pre recorded since I thought I wasn’t going to be on Live. Hopefully, by the time you see this post, I am on a flight back home…

I’m continuing with the Nests Of Winter Suite for Week 8 or my 12 weeks of Christmas

This will be my last post about this collection.  You will find a variety of cards in my coordinating class this upcoming weekend in L’Orignal Ontario or with the To Go Option.

Good News!!!  I have 1 spot left for my class in person in Ontario or my kits to go: You will receive a pdf with instructions and pillow gifts and bunch of supplies.  You can check out the details HERE.  And for those asking, yes there will be a PDF in this section once ready.

Catch up on the other coordinating projects from my Facebook Live:

  • Replay for Day 1 HERE
  • Replay for Day 2 HERE

Today, I wanted to share a fun technique with you.   I call it the Partial Die Cutting Technique. I love that part of my stamped image is die cut.

  • View the Vertical Way of doing this technique.  Can catch the Prerecorded Replay HERE
  • View the Horizontal Way of doing this technique on my Instagram Post HERE

This bundle is also available in French called Cimes Hivernales.  See image below for details on the greetings.
