Remember the card I made for my A2 card box? Well….this is basically the same. I LOVE the shape of the Top Note Die. I think everyone should own one.
I started out by folding a 4 1/4″ x 11″ piece of Riding Hood Red cardstock in half and cutting it with the Top Note Die. The Baroque Background was stamped over it with Riding Hood Red and the edges were sponged.
Next I stamped the snowflake from Winter Post in Whisper White on a Kraft label that I had cut with my new Nestabilities. I stamped the reindeer from the same stamp set in Chocolate Chip ink on the bottom left of that label. I used classic ink for my sample, but I think I will let my customers stamp it in Chocolate Chip craft ink inkstead.The label was adhered to the next size Label cut out and sponged in Chocolate Chip.
5/8″ wide Olive Grosgrain Ribbon was tied around the card at the fold. The sentiment is from the Cute & Curly stamp set. It was stamped first in Kiwi Kiss and punched out with the Curly Label Punch. It was stamped again in Chocolate Chip and the label was cut out and adhered over the Kiwi (I think I will prestamp the chocolate labels to make it easier).

WOw! This is so cool! Gosh, I wish I had the Big Shot because I just love that die… This card is just GORGEOUS!
Beautiful! Do you know if those new SU dies run through the cuttlebug????
So pretty. Love the reindeer against the soft white snowflakes. I need to try one of the cards with the top note. I just did a note card with the scallop circle and can’t wait to make a set . . . the bigz dies are the bomb! Hugs, M
I love the deer in Winter Post and this card is just beautiful!
Very pretty Beate! I love the die too and mine is finally in the mail…yay!
I love the deep, rich colors (and the shape!) of this card! Wishing I had gotten that stamp set…
Soooooooooooo fabulous… LOVE IT!!! 🙂 Thanks for all your inspiration!! Patty
You make the use of the top note look so easy, all your cards totally ROCK!! I don’t know why but I have trouble using it!!
Aloha,
First time to your blog and it’s been enjoyable. I love the deep red with the brown and green combo. Fabulous card. TFS!
I think you are right! I need to order this die too! Love your reindeer! Hugs, Deb
Another beauty Beate!!! I’ve added this set to my list now 😉 Placing an order on Monday!
I’ll have to try this die for a base…it’s gorgeous!
Your Christmas card is totally beautiful, and I love the colors and images you’ve used!! I need to make a Top Note-shaped card sometime. 😉 I LOVE the look!! Hugs!!
This is gorgeous! Funny, I haven’t quite gotten the hang of how to use that die cut. Hmmm, guess I should come back here more often!!!

You are right – everyone should own this die – it’s fabulous! And everyone should own this stamp set! Love it and I love how you used it on this card!
Awesome card. Question: what is sponging? I can’t really see enough of the details to figure it out. Love the Top Die. I want it, but my budget does not know how to make it happen …
So elegant…I LOVE this set!

When you made the card with the topnote using the BigShot, the Thank You card, and the Reindeer card. Do you attach the two cards together where it opens up, or is the message only on the outside? If you do put them together, how are you doing it?
Thank You,
