Silent Night
Good Sunday morning all! I started by embossing a piece of white card with the Diamond Poinsettia Embossing folder. Next I cut the Stained Glass Bells die starting with the largest die. I cut it in white and backed it with a piece of white vellum. From the back of the vellum, I coloured the leaves green and the berries red. I cut the middle die in white and backed it with vellum. I used a red marker on the back of the vellum to give it candy cane stripes. I cut the Bell die in white and backed it in vellum. I used markers on the back to colour in the bell design. I layered up all the sections and cut the Silent Night sentiment from a Christmas Wordie sheet. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x

A beautiful post today and love how the vellum just takes the edge off the colours used. Think this effect would also be good using lilacs/blues and silver/grey for the colder Xmas colours…
Good morning Sue,
