Tis The Season
Hi bloggers! I selected a piece of white card and embossed it with the Nordic Tiles embossing folder. Next I cut a multi-layered frame out of white card. I added mounting foam to the back and attached it to another piece of white card. I cut the fireplace from the Cosy Fireside Christmas die set out of tan card. I used Gathered Twigs distress ink around the edges and added a brown mantle to it. I added a black backing to it then taped it into place inside the frame. I cut the fire out of tan card and used markers to colour the fire. I cut the wreath out of green card and added a red bow to it. I cut the Christmas tree in green and coloured the ornaments with markers. I added it to the side of the fireplace. Using the swags, I cut them in green and ran them along the tops of both frames. I cut red bows to go at each join between them. I cut the Tis The Season sentiment out of both red and black card. I shadowed it then glued it to the top of the card. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size.
