Time for another christmas card! I'm kind of few-and-far-between on christmas cards; I don't send out a lot, and I don't make a lot. In fact - oh god, here we go, I'm admitting it - I don't even buy christmas stamp sets. (Can open! Worms everywhere!) I own three current ones; two were free product at an event and the third was a prize!
That said - on the rare occasion I actually DO make a christmas card, I want to make it special. The handful that I send out go to very special people in my life, and I want them to receive a beautiful card.
This one might be my favourite yet.
It's no secret that "and more" sums up my stamping style. Even clean and simple gets the "and more" treatment - there's always room for a little something extra! In this case, it's the whole shebang... vellum, glitter, embellishments, sewing, twine, foil paper, and even a bit of a Project Life card... the works! But yet, it's not too much. Right??
My favourite thing about this card is the gold glitter snowflake embellishment. I dunked one of the wooden snowflakes into Versamark, then dunked into Heat & Stick Powder, then partially heat-set, then dunked into Gold Glitter, then heat-set again... a lot of work for a little embellishment, but so so pretty! Plain wood is just a blank canvas, my friends!
I'll see you again soon with another fabulous seasonal project! Cheers!
Jaw-dropping AMAZING card. I absolutely love all the sweet gold accents and that little bit of stitching here and there. Oh yes, definitely to go on the favorite list :)
