Christmas.


Here is another Christmas card for this months Hero Arts challenge,  I wanted to try and make another card using a non Christmas stamp.  The bauble is just a circle of PP cut with a spellbinders die I then cut freehand the bauble top and coloured with copics. I stamped the circle with the Dandelion Frame and embossed in white,  then added some glittery stickles, I thought that the dandelion heads gave a frosty look and a wintery feel.

Here is a close up to show the glittery effect.

Hope you are all having a good week, I am looking forward to next week as its half term in the UK so more time to craft.  I also have some cooking and some shopping trips planned, Oh how I love working in a school!!

I love the card - that wonderful big red ornament is perfect with the dry embossed card. Just stunning.

very cleverly done Sally. Love the snowy look of the Dandelion Frame.

I love the sparkle, and the dandelion heads really DO look wintery. I love the ornament idea (must remember this!) and the red pearls & gold cord against the simple white embossed background help make this gorgeous card even more striking.
