I am so excited to finally use my Spellbinders Shopping Spree dies because this card was fun to make and I love the results! This is a really versatile set that can have different looks based on paper choice and how you stack the presents. And the stencil is new to me as well, just having bought it two days ago! I think my little Gift Giver looks like she is at the door delivering surprises to a friend. I am playing along with the Inspired By Challenge IB193C (here) Tis the Season for Friends.
I prepared a mini slimline card base, then stenciled it with distress ink using on of my two new Hero Arts Graphic Patterns Stencil Pairs. I cut out all the pieces of The Gift Giver with my dies and started a paper doll process of choosing where to put each present and which color combos I liked best. I was inspired by the pink, red and silver I see in the picture. The sentiment is from my Ellen Hutson Tis the Season stamp set. The best part is the moving legs...easy to make the mechanism too! I can't stop playing with this card!!
More fun on the way as I keep making projects for Christmas!
