Merry Christmas
Hello there my crafty friends! I cut a piece of white card and embossed it with the Ice Crystals embossing folder. Next, I cut the Holly Wreath Octagon die with all the pieces in white. I added a red octagon behind the middle section. I cut the wreath centre section two more times, once in green and once in red. I used the fallaway piece to paper piece back into the die. I cover a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet and cut the outer shadow die. I peeled the backing off and glittered it with Diamond White glitter, then added it behind the die and taped it to the embossed background. I used the Merry Christmas die which I glittered in red and added a black shadow backing to it before gluing it under the wreath. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 9 1/4" in size. All for now. Sue x

Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteThis is a glorious card: a bit of sparkle, some pearls, and my favourite technique of paper piecing.

ReplyDeleteHi Sue, Love the white cards, they stand out so much. Have the embossing folders and wish more A4 ones would be brought out again. I love them and use them a lot as I make white on white. Arlyn
