| Did you know the November kit coordinates with this month's kit? November is a Tag Kit but of course I'll have alternate ideas as well! |
Okay, let's talk about the alternates:
 |
| Alternate Card #1 |
- What's different about Alternate card 1:
- Heat embossed snowflakes on card base using the stamp from the kit and white emboss powder
- Some simple blending of Bermuda Bay on the white die cut square with a blending brush before stamping the Santa's sleigh silhouette from the kit
- Added some 2022-2024 In Color Dots in Tahitian Tide
- Stayed very close to the kit theme and pieces but I did add a piece of pattern envelope as DSP
 |
| Alternate Card #2 |
- What's different about Alternate Card #2
- Iridescent Trim! LOVE this stuff!
- I added Adhesive Backed Seasonal Sequins in White in the center of the snowflakes
- I added two pieces of the envelope striped pattern at the top and bottom of the card (3/4 x 5-1/2")
- I flipped over the snowflake die cut layer and used the white side as opposed to the crumb cake
- Shaded Spruce card base I created using the cardstock (A2 size)
 |
| Alternate Card #3 |
- What is different about Alternate #3:
- Flipped over the snowflake layer, cut in half and used the white side, split it top and bottom
- Used the mask in plaid pattern with blending brush and early espresso ink on the crumb cake envelope pattern in thin stripes and created that middle pattern strip
- Added Adhesive Backed Seasonal Sequins in Green in the center of the snowflakes
 |
| Alternate Card #4 |
- What is different about alternate #4:
- Yes, I flipped that snowflake layer over again! Couldn't help myself
- Used BRAND NEW Framed Florets dies with Sweet Sorbet cardstock and Basic White cardstock for the oval dies. These will be available for purchase to customers 11/1/2022 - BUT - you can actually get them now when you add them to the Starter Kit and the starter kit has additional savings this month! More on that below...
- Seasonal Sequins in Green (small ones) in the center of the snowflakes on either end all the way down
