Spellbinders July Stitching Die of the Month

 

The Spellbinders Stitching Die of the Month is called, Sweater Weather Friend.

I think he's super cute with the lights in his antlers and his cute sweater with the tree stitching on it. You can also add stitching to his scarf but I decided to skip it. That's the nice thing about the stitching dies, you can add the stitching hole die or omit it.

There's also a coffee mug you can choose to use instead of the gift.

I decided to make his nose red, I cut it out 3x from red cardstock and covered it with Glossy Accents for shine. The bulbs on the lights are cut from a scrap of glitter cardstock I had, you can also use multi colors for the bulbs like in the illustration.

For the background, I used the Embossing Folder of the Month which is the stitched sweater pattern. I used a lighter shade of red cardstock, then took a darker shade of red, Distress Oxide Lumberjack Plaid and rubbed it on the inside of the embossing folder and ran it through my diecutting machine. Distress Oxide ink stays wet a bit, so I poured clear embossing powder over the entire thing and heated it so the dark red would standout more.

More to come using the other July kits! I used one of the Bonus dies from the All Clubs Crate the other day:
