Hi Friends!
This week we are preparing
for Christmas on the Stamp
Simply blog.
I decided to create
another simple Christmas card using the Floral
Clusters- Winter Poinsettia stamp set, the Floral
Clusters and Sprigs die and the Snowflake
Blessings Border Strip stamp set along with gold embossing powder (all from
Stamp Simply).
If you have not had
a chance to check out
my Sister DT cards yet, I hope you will do so- gorgeous inspiration from all!
To create this card:
Trim a piece of
white cardstock to 4¼” x 5 ½” .
De-static the panel
with an embossing powder tool, ink the border image from the Snowflake
Blessings Border Strip stamp set with Versamark
ink, stamp onto the prepared panel, apply gold embossing powder and heat
set with a heat tool.
Trim the panel to 4”
x 5 ¼” and mount the panel onto a white card base.
De-static another piece of white cardstock and heat emboss the winter poinsettia image with gold embossing powder.
Die cut the image
with the Floral
Cluster die (I also die cut another one from white cardstock to layer
behind the embossed image).
Heat emboss the sentiment from the Snowflake Blessings Border Strip stamp set with gold embossing powder and die cut with the Fishtail Sentiment Banners die.
Adhere the sentiment
to the card front.
Mount the die cut poinsettia to the card front and add a few champagne rhinestones to the flower center to finish off the card.
