I cannot believe I am doing Christmas cards in July and 100° outside, but I guess you have to start sometime LOL!
As much as I like to do a lot of detail work, I also like simple elegance. This card is just that, simple but still elegant.
Cut and emboss white cardstock with the Long Rectangles using the Wizard Die Cutting System, stamp/emboss “Pease” with Silver embossing powder, airbrush with Copic Marker. On silver cardstock stamp/emboss using stamps from Flourished Elements stamp set, emboss with Silver embossing powder. Cut and emboss silver foil using the Scalloped Long Rectangles. Attach that beautiful ribbon and the NEW Self Adhesive Rhinestones from Flourishes! Yep, they are just beautiful, and so many different colors to choose from….
Be sure and check out other Design Team member’s cards!
