Forest Scene

I've finally finished all my Christmas cards and they are all written.  So here is my last design for 2025.

I picked up this beautiful die at a charity shop recently and this is the first time I've used it.  There was no packaging, so I don't know the brand.  I used the die with a snippet of white card and layered it on a navy blue rectangle, another snippet.  The sentiment is a stamp from the Stampin' Up 'Greatest Part of Christmas' set, stamped with Stampin' Up 'Night of Navy'.

I am joining in the following challenges:

  15. What a great die you found. The white forest looks beautiful against the navy cardstock. I wish I could say I'm done but only part way due to my inability to get started.

  21. The crisp white silhouette against the deep navy creates such a striking winter atmosphere. The die has wonderful detail and pairing it with snippets gives the whole design a clean, intentional look. The sentiment in Night of Navy ties everything together beautifully and keeps the focus on that serene forest scene. A lovely way to wrap up your 2025 collection.
