Merry Christmas
Hello crafters! I started today's card with a piece of Old Rose card to use as the background. I cut the Poinsettia Ribbon Wave die with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card. I used the white copy to colour the image with alcohol ink markers. I glued the black die cut on top and then cut the outer die from the set in white. I added the border to the white decorative edge cut die, then glued it vertically across the card. I cut the Noble Merry Christmas in both white and black. I used the black die cut as an offset shadow behind the white die cut. I glued it to the right of the border. The card was completed with white and old rose mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size.
Beautiful card Sue xx

ReplyDeleteHi Sue. Quite a minimalist card today in unusual colours for Christmas, The good thing about your Christmas dies is that a lot of them could be used all year round and this is an example of that.
