Season’s Greetings

Hello once again. Here is another card created during my previous crafting session:

The card base was created using the same colour card stock as the background panel – I forget which particular colour it is, but it is from Concord & 9th.

The background panel was run through my die cutting machine with the ‘Holiday Diamond‘ cover plate – a product from the recent Pinkfresh Studio ‘Create and Connect‘ online event. As you can see, this cover plate cuts out some trees and some stars, as well as having a diamond pierced detail

I then took a piece of Spellbinders gold card stock, and a Pinkfresh Studio frame die to create the frame, and the piece that came from the middle of that I placed behind the panel so the gold shone through the trees and stars.

The frame was attached with strips of 3D foam to create dimension.

I then took a piece of dark teal – Concord & 9th card stock – and used a stamp from another recent event through ‘Online Card Classes’ also Concord & 9th, and heat embossed using a Taylored Expressions gold sparkly embossing powder.

This tree was then die cut, and I layered that with another couple of die cuts for stability, and attached that with 3D foam pieces.

The sentiment was also heat embossed with the same embossing powder, and a star from a Spellbinders die set, was added at the top of the tree.

Some gold facetted gems for the centre of the snowflakes and the centre of the star were the final touches.

    The framing looks gorgeous on the card. I love that color of the tree, whatever it is – great choice. So elegant with the gold. WOW! So glad you joined us at Die Cut Divas this month using dies and focusing on any holiday.
