I always like to encourage my students to use what they have and shop their stash. However for this class you need a specific type of cover plate die. It does not have to be trees but it needs to be one that the design does not attach to the sides of the panel but cut out the shapes.

You can find the supplies I am using HERE! (below are hyper linked supplies)

• Mixed media paper

• Uncharted Mariner Stain

• Pumice Stone Stain

• Peeled Paint Stain

• Fresh Balsam Mica Stain

• Lost Shadow Oxide

• Uncharted Mariner Spritz

• Hero Arts Tree Pattern Die

• Hero Arts Jingle Bells Script Stamp

• Snowflake Visions Embossing Folder

Find alternative dies you can use HERE!

If you decide to use stand alone dies and create your own "cover plate" this might take a bit longer but it is a great way to use what you have in your stash.

Various Sentiments. (The ones I use are linked below)

• Peace Die

• Joy Die

• Merry Christmas Duo (Waffle Flower)

• Cozy Holiday Stamp (Waffle Flower)

• Elegant Christmas Sentiments (Trinity Stamps)
