[@1petra60]

oh I love both, mega, super

[@wendywilson1736]

I think they are both neat. This will help me use up some ATC sized winter print papers that I've had for awhile. Since I'm cutting half circles anyway, I can use larger circle diameters, to make better use of the paper sizes. Thanks much!!
I don't have that adorable gnome stamp. ☺️ But, I do have snow people stamps, so they will be cute, too.

Thanks so much Ina! So happy to hear the instructions were clear and helpful.

[@EvelynKampf]

HI Lynn,
I've just made kind of "sketches" for the two design in grey and black. And now I can use these sketches to create lots of different card with them by using all sorts of cardstock and DSP. GREAT! GREAT! GREAT!
Thanks for sharing. Your explanations are so good and I like the way you're presenting your ideas!
Love from Germany and stay safe

[@StamptasticDesigns]

Super! This is such a fun card making technique! I plan to make a few birthday cards using this design! Thanks so much for your feedback. So happy to hear the instructions are helpful. Sending love from Wisconsin! Stay safe and healthy.

Thank you Bunny. The circles are approximately 3, 2-1/2 and 2 inches in diameter. Any size circle shapes will work as long as each one differs slightly in size.
