NOEL

Hi Bloggers.

Another Christmas card today featuring one of the new dies that's available with the Grand Calibur Blockbuster on Create & Craft. A very simple card but effective I think.



I covered a piece of backing paper (Prima from a few years ago) with some Self Adhesive Film and then added some Creative Expressions Glass Micro Beads.

I cut the Spellbinders 2012 Holiday Tree out of white card. This is a really detailed die and does benefit from including a piece of greaseproof paper between the die and the card. I drew around the die onto some burgundy card to create a mat and glued the die cut on to it using Cosmic Shimmer Glue.

I stamped the letters for NOEL on to some white card using Plum Archival and cut them out using the small dies in the Holiday Tags die set. I inked through the dies with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam. I threaded some Baker's Twine from the Vintage Set through the tags and secured with 3D foam pads.

I assembled the card as shown and added some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Dark Bronze around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
