Joy to the World

I created today's card by blending DO's Tumbled Glass, Mermaid Lagoon & Salty Ocean. I then placed a stencil over the top and blended those colours again to give a subtle background. I then splattered some Perfect Pearls over the base to give it a little more interest. I die cut my layering Christmas Tree and sponged the inner layer lightly with DO Blueprint Sketch and then layered it onto silver glitter card stock. I also layered my base layer onto silver glitter card stock. Stamped my sentiment and popped up the sub sentiment on white card.

Bold JOY

Today I have created my background card by blending DO's Salty Ocean, Peacock Feathers & Lucky Clover. I then stamped some flourishes on the background with water and also spritzed the background with a bit more water. Once dry, I then stamped my large sentiment and heat embossed with gold as well as my sub sentiment on a scrap of black card. I layered the blended card onto some gold card and pop dotted my sub sentiment and added a few gems for added interest.

Sentiment Tree

Today's card is a soft pastel Christmas card, more colour than what the pic is showing. I created the watercolour look with DO's Abandoned Coral, Cracked Pistachio, Fossilized Amber and lots of water. I brushed the colours on then when it was dry, I stamped my sentiment tree and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I mounted it onto a soft green card and adhered it to the base then added a few clear sequins for some added interest.

My second attempt at a Slim Line card. I stamped my sentiment on a smaller piece of card then masked it while I stamped my images and sponged my background with DO Broken China. I then water coloured my image using DO's and added some sequins to finish off before attaching to the base card.

Santa Present

I have a stack of DP sitting in my cupboard that I just never reach for anymore. But today I saw a pretty card made by Nancy Bramucci Sheads check it out here that she had created that really grabbed my eye.

I mixed it up a bit by changing my main focal point image and by using a die cut for my sentiment.

Spirit of Christmas

 

My last card for the weekend and it's another Christmas card. I bought the Sizzix Geo Floral Frame with some birthday money so wanted to try them out. I stamped my sentiment first then die cut 2 of the frames out of the set. They are very fine so I backed them with some double sided tape before cutting. I then die cut some holly branches and added red gems for berries and clear sequins for added interest. I then mounted the panel onto some more gold card and attached it to my base.
