The wonderful 2024 Winter Days Collection has arrived! Holiday icons and greeting dies, rub on transfers, stencils, 6×6 plaids and prints, a clear stamp + die set – ready for your winter projects!
Hi, Jean here introducing a versatile Stitchable Mitten die set to send warm winter wishes. The new Snowflake RubOns add a frosty holiday look with crisp, opaque details that pop against the Cherry Red Cardstock background. The Wavy Sheet Music die – from an earlier release – is a great backdrop for a Christmas carol-inspired foil greeting banner.
Use the Stitchable Mitten die to find the perfect section of snowflakes for your design. Tape the die over the rub on transfer and cardstock and lightly trace the outline. I left about ¾” of cardstock uncovered at the bottom because it will be covered by the felt cuff. Handcut it about ¼” larger than the traced outline.
Carefully remove the paper liner from the rub on. Lightly tap the rub on onto the cardstock mitten. Tape the die to the rub on and cardstock. Cover it with printer paper and roll it through the diecut machine to transfer the snowflakes and diecut the mitten in one easy step. (The rub on set includes a wood craft stick if you prefer to burnish the rub on after diecutting the mitten.) Carefully remove the frosty plastic liner.
Attach adhesive label paper (or a sticker sheet) to white wool-blend felt and diecut the cuff. Stitch the top row of the cuff with white embroidery floss. Cut the mitten set’s button from Cherry Red Cardstock and stitch it to the cuff. Stitch the rest of the cuff and the mitten.
Cut a green 6×6 from the Greenery Collection and Cherry Red Cardstock with the 3-¾” wide Rectangle Basics die. Trim the corners with a corner rounding punch. Spritz both sides of the green rectangle with a light mist of water. Pressure-emboss it with the Wavy Sheet Music die using the rubber embossing mat and plates required for your machine.
Attach the diecuts to a light Kraft A6 card (4-½” x 6-14″) – use foam tape for the top and thumb of the mitten. Add a greeting from the new Merry and Bright White Foil Banner set. Add red Christmas Fairy Crystals. Cut an A6-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.
Thanks for visiting – see you again on Friday with more Winter Days designs!
