Hero Arts Merry Christmas Trees

Hi blogging friends Free Smiley Courtesy of www.millan.net

I am back today with a Christmas card that I made for my Godfather and his partner.



Both the trees and sentiment are from a Hero Arts clear set called:  Merry Christmas Trees and were stamped using Colorbox Sapphire Silk pigment ink and heat-set with Satin Pearl embossing powder.  I hand-cut them, popped the trees up on dimensionals (note: the one on the RHS is up slightly higher than the LHS tree) then added some tiny Basic Grey red rhinestones.

I diecut some snowflakes and popped them up on dimensionals and added some Kaisercraft red rhinestones to the centres.

By the way, the sentiment is stamped onto the LYB Delightful Collection - blue lace designer paper.

Challenges:

I am entering my card in the following challenge -

Papertake Weekly Challenge - I'm dreaming of a (your fave colour) Christmas where you have to make a Christmas card or project in your favourite colour scheme.  My favourite colour scheme at the moment (which you will have noticed by some of my most recent posts) is teal, white and red.

Thanks for stopping by!

Jocelyn
