The Nutcracker



I am up on the CutCardStock blog today sharing these cards. 
they were so fun to make using the Nutcracker die set by Concord & 9th. 

To make these cards, I started with a top folding precut and scored Classic Crest Solar White. Did you know that CutCardStock will cut your cardstock to A2 size or any size you want for an additional $3 per package? The cut is so clean and straight. It makes it so quick and easy to create a card project.

For the top card, I used the white base and a panel of Stardream Fairway Metallic dry embossed with the Berries & Boughs by Concord & 9th. Next I cut out an oval from the same cardstock using a die from the set. The sprig is cut from Lessebo Hunter Green, however the face and hands are cut from Cougar Natural. I used Juniper (red) Metallic for his suit, and accented it with Gold Metallic. I cut the boots out of Mars (Maroon) Metallic.



The second card was made with the same supplies as the first, I just used white instead of green. This time I did add a “Merry” sentiment to the front of the card and didn’t add the greenery sprigs for a different look.
