Merry Christmas Card

 


 Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with you my Merry Christmas Card. I combined a variety of A Way With Words Dies and Modern Gilding Powders 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 Merry Christmas Card at home.

To start, you'll need a piece of red and green cardstock and the Merry Christmas 3 Die. Die cut the Merry word out of the red cardstock. Die cut the Christmas word out of the green cardstock.


Die cut the Flourished Candle out of a piece of white cardstock. Cut the candle off of the flourish. Apply Emboss It Ink to the flourish and sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powders over the entire surface. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.


Apply Emboss It Ink to a piece of white cardstock. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powders over the entire area of ink. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. From the Peace on Earth Die, you'll need the stars. Die cut the stars twice out of the embossed paper. You'll need a total of seven stars.


Choose two pieces of Christmas patterned paper. From one piece of patterned paper, die cut a 4" Stitched Indented Rectangle out. From the other piece of patterned paper, die cut a 3 3/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out. Ink the edges of the rectangles using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Foam square the 3 3/4" rectangle to the 4" rectangle.


Adhere the flourish 7/8" from the bottom and 5/8" from the left of the rectangle. Adhere the Merry Christmas word slightly above the flourish.


Use foam squares to adhere the stars as desired around the Merry Christmas word and flourish.


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 closeups of the finish card.




Here is the finished Merry Christmas Card.
