Season's Greetings! a card

Hi everyone!

I've been working on my Christmas cards (finally). 


Items used:
  • white card stock for card base
  • red shimmer paper
  • white translucent vellum with silver sparkles on it
  • Embossing folder from Hot off the Press
  • acetate and gold foiled snowflakes
  • red crystal - Bo Bunny
I found some vellum in my stash that had silver glitter embedded on the vellum (not in it).  I also found some with red and blue so you'll be seeing that too.

I embossed the vellum and used the Sizzix repositionable glue sheet to back my vellum.  I added it to some red shimmer paper.  I had to rub the vellum somewhat to get a consistent color to come through.  I made sure not to rub off the sparkles!

I added two layers of snowflakes and a gem and done!

Thanks for stopping by!

Two Christmas Cards out of the ordinary

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share two Christmas cards that I made with Hunkydory's new collection call Enchanted Dreams.  They are out of the ordinary for Christmas cards.  I hope you enjoy them.

Christmas Leopard:



The picture doesn't do it justice. The colors are very vibrant red in person with pinks mixed in. One of the mats is also a variegated pink.


This is a close up of the kitty!

These are the layers I made for my card.  The foiled gold layer is embossed.


Christmas Ox:
 
This card is much ore the deeper rich red of Christmas.

Here is a lose up of the ox.  I love the house on his back.


The layers I used.


Thanks and hope you enjoyed these unusual cards.
