Christmas Quilt

 

Quilt Up Some Fun with a Square Punch

First start with a 1- 1/4" square punch # 104400 and  a few sheets of the 

CHRISTMAS COCOA SPECIALTY designer series paper # 116770 (Holiday Mini Catalog)

Punch a total of 6 squares  of various patterns. I then cut each of those six squares on a diagonal making 12 triangles.

Each of those triangles were mounted , side by side and mixing the patterns on a Soft Suede layer measuring 2- 3/4" by 4".

That panel was then mounted on a Real Red layer measuring 3- 1/4" by 4-1/2".

The next layer is Basic black measuring 3-1/2" by 4-3/4".

the last layer is Basic Gray measuring 3- 3/4" by 5".

TIP : Notice there is a 1/4" progression on each of the last 3 layers

1/4" Real Red grosgrain ribbon # 109034

The sentiment is from the Hostess set HOLIDAY BEST # 115364

It was stamped using versamark ink # 102283 and embossing with Silver Embossing Powder #109131 first on Shimmery White Metallic paper #101910 and then again using black embossing powder # 109135 on Soft Suede cardstock#115318. The Merry Christmas was cut from the soft suede piece and mounted directly onto the silver embossed Merry Christmas.

Mount your embossed sentiment onto a punched Small Oval # 107304 piece of REAL RED #102482.

Mount that to a punched Scalloped Oval # 114889 piece of Basic Black#102851.

LOOK CLOSELY.........the edge of the black scallop is silver!

It's Silver Metallic ENCORE ink # 101039  just sponged on the edges creating the illusion of another layer.

TIP: Use your heat gun to help dry metallic ink
