Hello once again. The Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge has started a new challenge – anything goes Christmas/Festive. Here is my card:
I thought I’d have a go at partial die-cutting with this gorgeous Hero Arts stamp and die set:
I stamped, coloured, the die cut the holly branch first. I then took a red card base, and partially die-cut the holly branch into the front, then used a craft knife to cut away thee top and bottom.
Before sticking the image down, I added a slim silver glitter strip, then some Lawn striped paper and dotty shiny paper.
My card base is 5 x 7 inches, so the 6 inch papers didn’t fit all the way, so I craftily joined them where you wouldn’t be able to see the join – under the sentiment and under the branch – soooo crafty…..!
The sentiment is white heat embossed onto the piece of red card stock I used for the base which I had cut off.
Hopefully you can come and join us in this challenge and get your Christmas card stash to grow by at least one more creation…… xx
I shall be entering the following challenges:
Creative Creases Challenge 16 – anything goes with a fun fold
Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge – anything goes Christmas
