Hello AJVD fans!!! Wow... Christmas is just a few days away!! Are you ready?? I think I am, lol!!! Rosemary here on the blog today with a garland that I made using the Elegant 3D Star die along with the small star die from the Stitched Dot Stars die set. When I got the Elegant 3D Star die I knew I wanted to make a garland with it. The one I'm sharing today is pretty simple.
I started by die cutting the star from several sheets of gold glitter cardstock. I will admit that the first few I die cut didn't cut all the way because I needed a shim. Once I added the shim my die cutting got much, much easier, lol! I then die cut the small star from the Stitched Dot Stars die set from silver glitter cardstock. Once that was done I simply attached the stars to some paper twine that I had in my stash. That was the hardest part of the whole project, lol!! Even after trying to smooth the twine out I still had some problems with it so I decided to hang the garland on the little tree I have outside my front door so I could take the pictures. Below is a close up of the garland. I love how it turned out!
