Christmas Card Number Five

Hello!

Today's card features a new stamp set I got last week that says exactly what I feel about Christmas, that it should be about family.

Materials needed:

  • Green, red, and two different patterned papers
  • Gold ribbon
  • Gold embossing powder and embossing ink
  • Sentiment stamp
  • Gold gel pen
To make the card:
  • Stamp and emboss the sentiment on to the red piece of paper.  Trim the two patterned pieces of paper down to create small sections to adhere on to the red piece.  Use the gel pen to create a few dash lines and cut a triangle from the bottom.
  • Pinch the ribbon in the middle and tie it loosely with some string, adhere the middle down onto the green paper and the ends of the ribbon on to the back of the paper.  Secure the green paper to your card base.
  • Using dimensional adhesive, adhere the red piece over the center of the ribbon.
There you have it.  I love what this sentiment says, it goes into the deeper meaning of Christmas not just the 'buy everything' kind of Christmas that we are subjected to every year.

Till next time
Stacey
