Hi guys, well it's nearly December so I've been making some Christmas cards, well as you know I made a few mens cards and so for a change I did one where I could add a little bling etc,
over at Lemoncraft they have a red colour themed challenge going on, I found some scraps in my stash, as I had just finished making one with the reverse side of it, but that's for another day!! lol
Anyway here it is,
I'm really into narrow cards this year so I did another one, I used the same red paper for both layers simply layering up the inner one with 3D foam, as usual I distressed the paper edges, these paper distress fabulously!!
I took a plastic snowflake from my stash and glued it down first using hot glue, then I added a handmade clock embellishment which I made out of air dry clay and a mould by Prima, when dry I added some gold wax over the top,
I die cut a label die out of two layers of card stock and one out of the reverse of the paper, after gluing these together I added a small piece of the red sided paper behind, finally I added some twine through the hole,
My next layer is a calico star I've had in my stash for years, then I added a air dry bird,
My Poinsettia is made out of the Lady E Design Poinsettia die using white silk foam and the centre stamens from the same die set were made die cut out of Kraft card, I added a pearl style embellishment for the middle,
Behind the flower I used some cut down frosted berries and some 13 Arts pieces too, then I simply added some Prima art stones and self adhesive gem stones here and there too,
Well that's another one done, just to make the boxes for them now!!! lol

Happy Crafting!!

Hi Liz, Just want to say that I love the concept you used here. Of course, your poinsettia is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
It's so lovely and elegant at the same time :-)
Thank you for playing along with us at LemonCraft.
