Merry Christmas

Hello bloggers!  I selected a piece of milk card for the background.  I used the vein stamp from the Sending Sunshine stamp set and inked it by adding some gold mixative onto my craft mat and picking it up with the stamp.   I stamped it all the way around the edges of the card.  Next I cut two of the Double Stitched Rectangles out of antique gold card.  I used the Double Stitched Rectangles Set B to cut the gold mirror card die that fits in between the other two mats.  I used the Stylish Poinsettia set to create three flowers out of milk card.  I had a damaged embellishment so I nipped off the remaining spokes from three of them and used them as accents in the middle of the flowers .  I seated the flowers in opposite corners.  I cut the Merry Christmas die out of gold mirror card and milk card.  I used the mirror card die cut as an offset shadow behind the milk die cut and glued it to the centre of the card.  The card was completed with milk mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8"  x  9"  in size.  



 The winner of the September die release is .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................Sued99!!!
