I thought it would be a good time to share a Holiday greeting card with you. This card is really very simple to create. Get out your tools and stamp along with me!
I apologize that the photo doesn't truthfully represent the beauty of the metallics and the rich colors.
SUPPLIES:
Light neutral cardstock
Night of Navy cardstock (or cardstock that coordinates with the patterned paper you are using)
A printed paper with metallic touches
Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set
Beautiful Baubles stamp set
Night of Navy ink (or coordinating ink)
VersaMark ink
Big Shot
Happy Little Things dies
Stampin' Dimensionals
Copper Ribbon
Embossing Buddy
Copper Embossing Powder
Heat Tool
DIRECTIONS:
Fold a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of light neutral cardstock in half, creasing it well with a bone folder.
Cut a seasonal piece of printed paper to 4" x 5 1/4". At about 1 3/4" from the top of the paper, add a length of copper ribbon, taping the ends oon the back.
Adhere the seasonal paper to the card base.
Cut a 3" square of the same cardstock you used for the card base. Rub an Embossing Buddy all over this piece. With VersaMark ink, stamp the ornaments. Heat emboss the image with copper embossing powder.
Add this embossed piece to a 3 1/4" square of Night of Navy cardstock, or any other color that coordinates with the printed paper you have chosen.
Use Dimensionals to add this finished piece to the patterned paper, leaving even margins at the top and sides.
On a scrap of the light-colored cardstock, in coordinating ink, stamp a seasonal message.
Die cut the sentiment with a small label die. Adhere the label flat about 1/2" below the square.
Holiday
Smiles.
