Welcome to day 9 of our 12 Days of Stitchmas 2025 Advent Calendar class! Join us and stitch your way through the season! We invited 12 guest artists to share inspiration with the 12 stitching surprises. Let’s welcome Suzanne Hue as she shares inspiration with the Day 9 surprise!
For my first card, I only used day 9 dies from the
12 Days of Stitchmas 2025 Advent Calendar
.
I die cut the cupcake line both with
Teal Topaz
and
White cardstock
and adhered them together for a more sturdy piece to stitch. I used
DMC Diamant metallic thread
in silver to stitch the cupcake liner. Then I die cut the cupcake with
Truffle
cardstock, and the frosting with
Alabaster
cardstock. I also decorated the cupcake with holly berries and leaves cut out of
Poppy
and
Fern
cardstock.
For the background, I adhered a
Mint
cardstock panel measuring 3.50 x 4.75 inches on top of a glitter panel measuring 3.75 x 5.00 inches using
Treasured Cardstock
in Silver Glitter Metallic. Then I centered these panels onto a white A2 card base to make a top-folding card. Next, I decorated around the assembled cupcake with
Opal Gems
. The sentiment is from the
Sending Joy Sentiments
Press Plate & Die, which was pressed on Porcelain Cotton Card with Black BetterPress Ink.
For my second card, I used Day 9 dies to create another cupcake, but this time with no stitching. I embossed the cupcake liner with the
Dimpled
3D Embossing Folder for texture. I die cut
Alabaster
cardstock and ink blended with ink for the cupcake layer. And then cut two pieces of the frosting to make the cupcake more festive. I also die-cut the holly berries and leaves with white cardstock and did some ink blending.
For the layers of the ornament, I used the
Scallop & Stitched Edge Ovals
Dies to cut layers of Treasured Cardstock in Antique Glitter Metallic,
White
, and
Mint
cardstock. I sandwich some glitter ribbon between the large scallop panels. The sentiment is from
Merry Messages
Press Plate & Die and is glimmered on Onyx Cardstock with
Matte Silver Hot Foil
Roll. Lastly, I decorated the cupcake liner with
Opal Gems
.
Thanks so much for joining me for day 9 of the
12 Days of Stitchmas 2025
. I hope you have a great day and happy stitching!
