This month I want to present to you my new series called Postage collage! The Postage Collage Die leaves the 6 stamps connected on 1 panel. You can easily trim them into individual pieces to create your own collage. With coordinating stencils you can decorate each of the stamps.

For my firsst card I used Postage Collage Die with Postage Collage Coloring Stencil. I made cuts on 2 stamps to separate them a bit. I stamped more images over the die cut using Postage Collage Stamp Set and black ink. 

Also, you can use only one stencil from the set Postage Collage Coloring Stencil to color the card panel with inks or other mediums as I did on my next card. After I applied inks theorith stencil I stamped flowers over the stencil and heat embossed them with white powder. 

Another fun coordinating stencil is - Postage Collage Everyday Stencil. I used distress inks over the grey color paper die cut. In the Postage Collage Die set you will find a few additional small stamp dies. I decorated my card with two of them.

And here is a Christmas version of the Postage collage :) I made my next cards using Postage Collage Christmas Stencils. To color the border on this card I used Postage Collage Coloring Stencil. 

I skipped the part with stenciling ornaments on the tree and added a small enamel dots instesd. 

I love to use my Distress inks on the colored cardstock, but you can try Distress Oxide for the more intense look. I decided to create all my Christmas cards with distress ink only :)

To add more intrerest ot this card I used a small wax seal die cut I made using Wax Seals Die

And here are a few more cards with a seoarated stamps die cuts. 

On this card I went crazy with stamping, but I like it :) 

The last layer of Postage Collage Christmas Stencils can be used with some shinny mediums as a gold glitter paste. Shinny details on the Christmas cards look amazing! 

And this month we have a new dog die in our big cute critter familly :) - Be a Dog Die. I added a cute Santa costume using Be Christmas Accessories Die

I have a cat version too! :) I applied pink distress inks throutgh the Cloudy Stencil on a pink cardstock to create a cute scene for the cat.

Thanks foe stopping by!
