Christmas Waves A Magic Wand - New Design Team Member!



This is Selma Stevenson and I am on Susan Tierney-Cockburn's Design Team at Elizabeth Craft Designs. {And now on our Design Team!} Suzanne's stamps and sentiment dies are a perfect match with Susan's beautiful flowers.   




This is a 5 1/2" x 6" card.  The rubber stamp used is the "Christmas Waves a Magic Wand".  It was gold embossed on a piece of white card stock 2 1/2" x 4 1/2", then backed with a piece of brushed gold card stock.

The verse reads "Christmas waves a magic wand over this world and behold everything is softer and more beautiful".  This reminds me of being out during a beautiful snowfall. 



  A piece of white card stock, 5" x 5 1/2" was embossed using the Elizabeth Craft Snowflake embossing folder.  To create dimension, I die cut snowflakes from the Elizabeth Craft Spiral Circle Pull Card, and the All Seasons Tree die sets.  The smaller snow flakes were attached over the larger snowflakes with dimensional tape.  To give them the sparkle, I dabbed each snowflake with glue and sprinkled on Elizabeth Craft Cool Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter. 

The poinsettia was created with Susan's Garden Notes Poinsettia and has the Cool Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter on the petals.
 


On the inside of the card, I added the Quietfire die cut Merry Christmas, from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  This sentiment was also die cut using brushed gold card stock.  To finish the inside, two more glittered snowflakes were added.
