A Little Make It Monday #138 Magic

Happy Friday Dear Friends!!!  I hope all is well with you!!  I'm starting the weekend off right with a little Creative Therapy using the Papertrey Ink Make it Monday #138 Challenge along with the Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes Challenge. 

Here's my take on the Challenges:
I have been in the Christmas Card Zone this week and what better type of card to make after a hectic week than a Peaceful Christmas Card!  Makes me take a nice deep breath and enjoy the peaceful moment!!  I used Papertrey Ink One Liners Dies and some Silver Shimmer paper.  Sigh....Silver Peace....makes all the stress totally go away!!!  I used the Inlaid Die Cut technique described here. Love, love, love this technique!!  I die cut the patterned paper and the Silver Shimmer paper and pieced them together as the video explains.  I also die cut the edge of the tree using the One Liner die too!  It all works together perfectly!!
I used PTI In the Meadow Dies to die cut the deer and the tree and I used some Basic Grey Christmas scraps for the base of the card.

Such an effective technique!!  I hope you give it a try!! You'll love the results!!

Thanks for stopping by and wish you a peaceful evening!!

  2. Oh, wow. I liked my one liner peace card until I saw yours. Yikes is this fabulous. I love how you cut away part of the tree, the beautiful shimmer paper you used, and those sweet deer. Consider yourself pinned and cased!

  4. Kristii,
    I really love the way you have used In the Meadow and the One Liners! I wish I had purchased the liners last month, now I have to wait til they are in stock again. :(

  15. Just stunning Kristii. The deer silhouettes are so fun to use, but now I have to rethink the need for the One-Liners. I've been telling myselt I don't need them…but then I see all these beautiful creations using them. What's a gal to do? Buy it all ~

  18. This card is GORGEOUS, Kristii! Fab job with the inlaid die cut--especially with the tree trimmed to be "behind" the text. Love those deer die cuts, too. I see now that I need to check out the PTI dies!
