NEEDED A FEW MORE...

Christmas cards - and this design fit the bill for mass producing about six cards.  Die cut the ornament (stick-it on the back of the metallic cardstock) in both gold and silver.  Then adhered the outlines on the card base and used the opposite colors to fill in the bits and bobs.  Stamped the sentiment with black HA ink twice (used my MISTI) and sprinkled with clear HA powder and heat embossed.  Added the "merry" and the sprigs of pine with sequins and done and dusted.




Am entering this in Happy LIttle Stampers "favorite technique" challenge for December - love die cutting.

Probably last card I will make this year (altho I have two special posts scheduled for the next few weeks) as I'm off to London on Tuesday to spend Christmas my family there.  Wishing you all a very merry and a wonderful 2016.  Hugs, Betty
