Have A Joyful Christmas

 Hi bloggers!  Today's festive offering began by embossing a piece of white card with the Stripes Embossing folder.  I added a gold and black mat to the background.  Next I cut the Garland Bauble and the Sparkle Bauble out of Antique Gold Card and added a black gloss card  backing to both of them.  I cut the Bauble Branch out of Antique Gold card twice.  I glued one across the top then added a partial of the second one to extend it across the top of the card.  I cut the beaded drop pieces and added the ornaments to them.  I cut the Have A Joyful Christmas sentiment in both black and gold.  I used the black as a shadow, then glued the sentiment into the lower corner.  The card was completed with white, black and antique gold card.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

    Morning Sue and all that visit today. I remember this beautiful regal sample during your recent launch. I became owner of your older bauble dies but this gave me the incentive to add to those I'm lucky to have already and waiting for them to be delivered along with the gorgeous decorative swirl, I couldn't think of festive cards but I'm hoping I'll find some concentration and enthusiasm to make the most of the exquisite tools you provide for us. Take care, keep safe and well everyone and hugs to all xxx

    Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, what a stunning Christmas card this morning, love all aspects of it from the embossing folder in the background through to the baubles in black and gold and even the bauble branch comes into play, really super duper sample.

    Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

    Hello Sue
    This is a classic Christmas card I have the bauble branch and it is lovely. I have just finished all mine and my sister in laws birthday cards,she is in a nursing home and wanted me to make them for her. So to Christmas cards you make it so easy to vary each card by just giving little tweaks I hate making the same card over and over.Take care everyone x
