Season's Greetings
Hello crafters! I started by embossing a piece of white card with the Falling Snow embossing folder. Next I cut the Ornate Adornment Border twice out of white card. I backed both of them with Cobalt Blue card. I added mounting foam to the back of both borders then added them to the top and bottom edges of the card. I cut the Noble Season's Greetings out of Silver Sparkle card and shadowed them with an offset black die cut. I glued it to the middle of the embossed background. Using the Classic Poinsettia dies, I made two Poinsettias cut out of silver sparkle card and added them in opposite corners around the sentiment . The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hello Sue. What a lovely way to use those borders and although the card doesn't scream Christmas, by adding the poinsettias it gives a nod to the season.
