Peace
Hello there my crafty friends! You may recognize this card as I demoed it when I was on Hobby Maker in Sept last year. I started with a piece of antique gold card and embossed it with the Nordic Tiles embossing folder. Next I used the die from the Pierced Square Frames die set and cut a square frame in white and backed it with black to show through the dots. I added mounting foam to the back of it and added a piece of white card that I embossed with the Falling Snow embossing folder. I cut a small circle out of black gloss card and glued it in the upper corner of the frame. I cut two of the Snow Covered Pine Trio in white. I glittered the main tree body then added the top open tree die to them both and seated them inside the frame. I cut the Peace sentiment in both white and gloss black card. I used the white as a shadow offset behind the black die cut and glued it below the frame. I cut two poinsettias out of gloss black card, assembled them and added them to the corner of the frame. I added some white fronds cut from the Evergreen Branches to the flowers as accents. The card was completed with white, antique gold and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, stunning card, I have the dies to make this one, so will have a go when I get a minute. It is hot here in Kent so trying to keep cool.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Beautiful post and quite elegant. The antique gold, along with its partner the silver, is some of my all time favourite card stock and with these dies works perfectly 😊
A cool scene on what is already here a hot day. I'm going to be cold soon as I'm going to learn how to give CPR to my husband (its part of his cardio rehabilitation after his recent surgery ) and apparently they put on the air conditioning that high that you need a cardigan. WakeyL
Lovely Christmas card

Sorry Sue but I’m not too sure about this one. I don’t mid the black at all. Possibly it’s just a bit too busy for me. X
Fabulous card Sue, I love the colour combination.
