Christmas Double day

Hi bloggers!  We are getting down to the last four double days of the year!  I thought I would start this one off with a bright and cheery card.  I started by embossing a piece of coconut white card with the Falling Snow folder.  I pulled out my Double Pierced Squares and made a multi layered frame with a white base and a thin black edge to it.  Next I cut the Triptych Window in black and glued it on to a piece of acetate.  I used the Crystal Tints to fill in the mosaic areas on the window.  I randomly applied them , allowed the dry, then went back in for a second coat and set it aside to dry overnight.  I cut another window to add to cover any spots where the tint may have gotten on top of the die cut.  I added a white backing to make the colours really pop.  I cut the Eve die in white and seated the window on top of it in the top of the frame area.  I cut the Happy Christmas sentiment and glued it to a wide Pierced Flag and attached it below the window.  I made two glittered Poinsettias and seated them opposite the sentiment tag.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8" x  8 1/4" in size.  Scroll down for card number two.

Card number two started with a piece of ruby red card.  I used the Nordic Christmas mask and applied Red Glitter Kiss through it.  I allowed it to dry well then used the Double Pierced Circles to cut an aperture in it. I cut the Carol die in white and glued it to the circular cut out, then cut the centre out of it.  I raised the circular cut out with carol attached to it using mounting foam, then added it back in place.  I recessed the centre back into place.  I cut the Warm Winter Wishes from the Snowball Frame die set and glued it in the centre of the card.  I made three glittered white poinsettias and seated them around the circle.  I added a line of dries clear glue around the edge of the background and added Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz and allowed it to dry.  The card was completed with white and red mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x  7 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x
