Hello crafty friends! Today I'm sharing my card I made featuring the so fun and festive Honey Bee Stamps Lovely Layers: Coat and Lovely Layers Coat Holiday Add-on! I love the decorative Santas I see in stores that are dressed in all white and have used that as my inspiration!

The card base is 5" x 7" which was needed to accommodate the Lovely Layers: Coat and Holiday Add-on. I embossed a 5" x 7" panel of white cardstock with the beautiful Frosted Filigree 3D embossing folder and glued it to the card base.
For the Lovely Layers: Coat and Holiday Add-on I chose white glitter cardstock along with white, brown, and silver mat cardstocks to die cut all of the layers from. Note: I used 110# white cardstock for just a bit more dimension.
Referring to the layering guides available in each product's description, I adhered each layer with glue. Because of the glitter cardstock, I did need to use my reverse tweezer to clamp the layers for a few minutes while the glue dried. To get just a bit of a dimensional curve on the top layer of the Coat, I added a strip of foam tape down the center of the layered die cut. Then I used foam tape to adhere the completed coat to the card.
To add a bit of color and interest to the card, I die cut the pine branches from the Lovely Layers: Sleigh Bell set from white cardstock. I used blending brushes and two shades of green ink to color each branch. After snipping just a bit from the ends of the branches, I used glue to adhere them to my card.
The sentiments are from the Simply Stated: Holiday stamp set and die cut with the Simply Stated Honey Cuts. Because this is a one piece stamp and die, all I had to do was reach into the Honey Bee storage pocket and choose two of the sentiments I stamped from a previous project. I used foam tape to adhere each one to my card.
I hope you love this all-white, sparkly version of the Lovely Layers: Coat and Holiday Add-on as much as I do!!
