Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with you my Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas Card. I combined a variety of dies, stamps and Modern Gilding Powder, which were all perfect for creating this card. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas Card at home.
To start, you'll need the Flourished Christmas Tree die. Apply a patch of Emboss It Ink to a piece of white cardstock. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powder over the inked area. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Once cooled, die cut the dots and star from the embossed paper. Apply a patch of Emboss It Ink to a piece of white cardstock. Sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powder over the inked area. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Once cooled, die cut the two flourished trees die out of the paper. Die cut the non flourished tree out of black cardstock.
Adhere the copper tree to the black tree. Adhere the star and dots to the tree.
Apply Emboss It Ink to the Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas sentiment from the Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas stamp set and stamp onto a piece of cream cardstock. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powder over the stamped sentiment. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Fussy cut around the sentiment. Ink the edges of the sentiment using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Die cut the Flourished Frame out of a piece of cream cardstock.
Die cut the 3 1/2" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of a piece of book page. Distress the edges of the rectangle. Ink the edges of the rectangle using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Choose two pieces of coordinating Christmas patterned paper. Die cut the 4" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of the first piece of patterned paper. Die cut the 4 1/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out of the second piece of patterned paper. Distress the edges of both rectangles. Ink the edges of both rectangles using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Die cut the 3 3/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out of a piece of black cardstock. Distress the edges of the rectangle.
Adhere the 4" rectangle to the 4 1/4" rectangle. Adhere the flourished frame to the 4" rectangle.
Adhere the 3 1/2" rectangle to the 3 3/4" rectangle. Foam square the 3 3/4" rectangle to the 4" rectangle.
Foam square the flourished Christmas tree to the middle of the 3 1/2" rectangle.
Use adhesive and foam squares to adhere the Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas sentiment to the bottom portion of the flourished Christmas tree.
To finish the card, cut a cardbase out of White cardstock that measures 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", score at 4 1/4". Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.
Here are a few closeup photos of the finished card.
