Season's Greetings
Hello crafters! I started by cutting the three trees from the Bubble Tree-O die set out of antique gold card. I backed each of the trees with gold mirror card. I embossed a piece of black card with the Falling Snow Embossing Folder. I used a small amount of Enchanted Gold Gilding Polish over the top of the embossed piece of card. Using the Clipped Corner Rectangles, I cut a black frame and attached it with mounting foam over the embossed card. I attached the three trees inside the frame. I added the frame to a larger piece of black card and cut the Season's Greeting sentiment out of Antique Gold card and shadowed it with a gold mirror card then glued it below the frame. The card was completed with white, gold, and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 9 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, I love the new tree bauble dies from this years collection, and this sample is lovely, I don't think the black background doe it credit though, I would have used a different colour to frame the trees, but that is just me, so don't worry, I still love all your dies and creations Sue.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue I love your bauble tree die and I have it, all ready to start making my Christmas cards when I get time. Your card is gorgeous and thank you for the inspiration Welcome back Helen
Hello Sue. Love this card today. I can't stop using the Christmas tree dies, they make such wonderful modern-looking cards. Like Carol, I thought the gold mirri card had a painted effect on it but I think it must be a reflection (it's really difficult to photograph mirri card without picking up something in the background)
Morning Sue.
ReplyDeleteA lovely card thank you.
Take care all Kitty.
