Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with you my Merry Christmas Card. I combined a variety of dies, stamps and Modern Gilding Powder, which were all perfect for creating this Christmas Card. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Merry Christmas Card at home.
Start by choosing two pieces of Christmas patterned paper. Die cut a 4" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of the first patterned paper. Die cut a 3 1/2" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of the second piece of patterned paper. Ink the edges of both rectangles using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Die cut a 3 3/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out of a piece of book page. Ink the edges of the rectangle using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Die cut a 2 1/2" Stitched Oval out of cream cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to the Merry Christmas stamp from the Poinsettia Banner & Sentiments stamp and stamp in the middle of the oval. Sprinkle Forever Platinum over the stamped sentiment. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Ink the edges of the oval using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Die cut the Flourished Oval Frame out of a piece of white cardstock. Apply Emboss It ink to the entire surface of the frame. Sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powder over the entire surface of the frame. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.
The next three steps use the new Christmas Accents Die.
Die cut the small leaves twice out of a piece of dark green cardstock. Ink the edges of the leaves using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Die cut the medium flowers twice out of a piece of red cardstock. Die cut the small flowers five times out of a piece of red cardstock. Die cut the extra small flowers five times out of a piece of red cardstock. Ink the edges of all the flowers using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.
Die cut the centre of the flowers five times out of a piece of dark yellow cardstock.
Adhere the 3 1/2" rectangle to the 3 3/4" rectangle. Adhere the 3 3/4" rectangle to the 4" rectangle.
Foam square the stitched oval to the middle of the 3 1/2" rectangle. Adhere the flourished frame overtop of the stitched oval.
Shape and adhere the flowers.
Adhere the two flowers with leaves to the bottom left side of the frame. Adhere the three flowers to the top right side of the frame.
To finish the card, cut a cardbase out of white cardstock that measures 4" x 10 1/2", score at 5 1/4". Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.
Here are a few closeup photos of the finished card.
