Tim Holtz Yuletide Harvey Old and New Products

 

I just received some of the new Sizzix Tim Holtz release. Today I'm sharing a card I made using Yuletide Harvey. He's a smaller version of the original Harvey and comes with this pretty dieset to make a greenery swag. 

I diecut the set from regular cardstock, mostly scraps since the pieces are so small. I took a brick colored cardstock and cut it to an A2 size. I used the old brick embossing folder (no longer made but there is a larger A5 brick embossing folder) and put some Black Soot Distress Ink and rubbed the ink pad over it. After embossing, it pushed the black ink into the grout area of the brick wall. To give the bricks and aged look, I took some mini Distress Oxide ink pads and touched the bricks, here and there. Super easy. 

I took 2 Spellbinders arch dies to make the white frame, cutting it 2x to give it some dimension. I took the smaller of the 2 and diecut the center of the brick wall out. I placed it over the snowflake background.

To make the snowflake background, I inked the Vault Snowflakes embossing folder and inked it up with Broken China Distress Oxide ink. I put a piece of white cardstock into the folder and embossed it. 

I diecut the swag 2x from shades of green cardstock. I cut the bows 3 times. I used pop dots to give the swag some dimension off the card. 

I cut the larger arch from scrap paper to cover the frame and snowflake background. I spattered some white acrylic paint over the brick and swags.

I want to give you a tip for Sizzix Colorize dies. I watch the YouTube Sizzix videos on how to put them together. Rather than watching them every single time when I want to make one, I decided to keep a sample with the dieset package. I use random scraps in different colors so I can easily see the layers. They don't look good but easy to see. On the back I attach another piece of white cardstock so I can write which layer belongs to which color.

Makes it a bit easier! Thanks for visiting today!
