It is Teri with TerisMailbox posting this cute holiday decor piece for CutCardStock.

Just in time for Holiday decorations!

Create the Holiday Background

Start your holiday project by adding Distress Oxide Inks randomly with a brayer to cover an 8.5 x 11 inch piece of 110 lb. White Cougar Cardstock. You will need to create two panels in order to create 5 holiday banners. Use at least three shades of coordinating inks. Be sure to leave some white space for interest.

Once the panels are dry, add a variety of snowflakes randomly over the entire panel using embossing ink and white embossing powder. Select a variety of sizes for interest. Cut into 4 4.25 x 5.5 inch panels. Use a banner die cut to cut 5 banners from the backgrounds.

Die Cut the Holiday Greeting

Using 110 lb. White Cougar Cardstock, die cut the letters for your project. I used an alphabet available on my Cricut machine and cut three of each letter to spell the word MERRY. After gluing them together, I added Glossy Accents and Clear Chunky Rock Candy Glitter to add sparkle.

Assemble Your Holiday Decor Piece

Glue the background panels to Kraft Chipboard to provide stability. Once dry, trim the edges of the chipboard.

Select a piece of coordinating wide ribbon to display the panels. Cut two small holes in the top of each panel. Arrange the panels evenly spaced out and use coordinating embroidery floss (multiple threads) to attach the panels to the ribbon. Using a small metal ring, sew the ribbon to the top of the display and add a bow.

I hope you are getting ready for the holidays… get your holiday decor ready! I know I have been creating with the large variety of products available at CutCardStock. Happy Holidays my friends!
