More Than Merry Monday

 More Than Autumn, a new stamp and die set in the September - December 2024 Mini Catalog, is perfect for all your fall-themed cards.  But what about Christmas?  Can it cross-over?  

Yes!

Just combine it with Christmas trees from Decorative Trees, add a fun background paper, and some hot chocolate, and you've got all the makings of a Hallmark Christmas card!  😄

First the trees - using just the dies from the Decorative Trees bundle, I cut two trees (one in Granny Apple Green and the other in Garden Green) then used the opposite colors to cut the decorative overlays. 

One thing to know - the basic tree is larger than the overlays.  I just adhered the top piece and trimmed off the bottom of the tree.  There is a die to create two different sizes of tree trunks, so you won't be missing anything.  

And see those little ball ornaments?  I created those with the Pearlized Enamel Effects in Real Red.  

And then there's that little cup of hot chocolate!  Cut with the More Than Autumn dies and decorated with a little "sleeve" of the background paper (Take A Bow DSP), a tiny gingerbread man and a candy cane, this cup is adorable!  

All pieces were mounted on Basic White cardstock over a Garden Green die-cut of the Perennial Postage dies.  

And don't overlook the little Red and White Adhesive-Backed Peppermints!  Those little embellishments will make all your holiday cards shine!
