Tis The Season

Hi crafters!  Still more Christmas cards to share on the run up to the big day, but I really liked this Fire and Ice sample.  I started by cutting the frame from the Mosaic Bauble die set in black.  I covered the front of it with a piece of sticky adhesive sheet, then turned it over and gilding the back with Summer Meadow Gilding Flakes.  I used a piece of Rubit Scrubit pad to refine the flakes and remove the excess.  Next I peeled the other side of the backing paper off of the front of the card and sprinkled it with Iced Snow, then trimmed away the excess.  I added mounting foam to the back to raise it.  Next I cut the Poinsettia Lattice Background out of white card.  I backed it with white card then seated the frame over it.  I cut one more of the Lattice Poinsettia die in white and hand cut the five poinsettias out.  I used spray glue on them , then glittered them with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz and added them back over the originals in the background after forming them and adding pearls to the centres. I cut the Tis The Season sentiment in black and glued it to the centre of the card.  The card was completed with White and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x  8" in size.  All for now, Sue x
