For Someone Special

Here's a Christmas card that I sent to someone special. It's a 6"X 6" card. The base is 130 lb white cardstock with metallic blue paper that I ran thru using a snowflake embossing folder. The yellow metallic paper is cut and embossed using the Spellbinder's Poinsettia grand die and layered on the blue paper. The frame is stamped and embossed using Ranger's Roman Gold EP. The larger Poinsettia and individual petals are stamped using Top Boss embossing ink and embossed using Ranger's Queen Gold EP. The flowers are painted using Stampin'Up Champagne Mist shimmery paint even the poinsettia die was done. For the flower centers I used basic pearls and for the larger poinsettia I used Zip dry glue and sprinkle gold glitter. I stamped saying (from Festive Frame set) in Top Boss and embossed with Queen Gold EP by Ranger and cut and embossed using the Labels Four from Spellbinders. I outlined the embossed edge using Ocean Smooch accent ink.

Christmas Card

Here is another Christmas card I did. I found this on Kimberly Van Diepen blog http://stampinbythesea.com/ I change it a little bit but I love how she used Serene Snowflakes and the little Dasher stamp on Crumb Cake cardstock. I used Soft Suede as my base then I used Crumb Cake. I stamped Serene Snowflakes using Frost White Shimmer paint onto my stamps then stamped Soft Suede ink in between the  white snowflakes. Took a smaller piece of Crumb Cake stamped Serene Snowflakes as above then stamped Dasher using Soft Suede ink attached him to Early Espresso cardstock. Curled up the two corners. Laid down a piece of sticky tape and used Soft Suede polka dot grograin ribbon (that has retired) and pleated along the bottom. Attached neutral designer buttons with a couple of brads from the neutral collection on top. All supplies by Stampin'Up
