We’re halfway through the 30 Day Christmas Card Making Challenge and the challenge for Day 15 is “Twinkle Twinkle”.
I’ve combined something old (the Merriest Tree stamp set & dies and the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder) with something new (the Season of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Brushed Silver & Gold Foil Specialty Paper) to make today’s Christmas card.
The “Twinkle, Twinkle” element of my card is the lovely stars that top each tree, decorate the gold foil tree and are scattered on the embossed background. These are all created using Merriest Tree dies to die cut Brushed Gold Foil Specialty Paper with an adhesive sheet attached to turn the die cuts into stickers.
I’ve also used the adhesive backed gold foil to die cut strings of lights for the tree on the right and for the baubles on the middle tree. A strip of striped DSP from the Season of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper finishes off the bottom of the card.
I’ll be tomorrow I’ll be back tomorrow with another “30 Days of Christmas” Christmas card.
The challenge for Day 13 of the 30 Day Christmas Card Making Challenge is “Poinsettia Perfection”.
I’ve used the large die cut poinsettia from the A Little bit Festive DSP along with a smaller die cut poinsettia from the Joyful Images Mix & Match Ephemera Pack to make this quick and easy Christmas card.
The red striped DSP is also from the A Little bit Festive DSP.
The gold foil “Celebrate” sentiment is die cut using one of the Wanted To Say dies, with the word “Christmas” from the Greetings of the Season Stamp Set heat embossed in gold.
I’ve tucked some of the new online exclusive Gold Twisted Thread under the smaller poinsettia.
I’ll be back later tonight with the AWH Colour Creations blog hop where we will be showcasing Gray Granite.
The challenge for Day 12 of the 30 Day Christmas Card Making Challenge is “Bauble Bliss”.
Although I have a current bauble bundle, I really love the retro feel of this little die cut ornament from the Festive Tags Kit so I decided to make it the focal point of my Christmas card. This kit is a great kit to use as it is for Christmas tags or to turn into cards.
My black and white striped DSP layer is from the Halloween Spells Designer Series Paper and I’ve added one of the Lost Lagoon and gold foil tags from the Festive Tags Kit.
The “O” for the word joy is the cute little bauble from the Festive Tags Kit with Alphabest die cut gold foil from the online exclusive Brushed Silver & Gold Foil Specialty Paper creating the J and the Y.
The gold embellishments decorating the bauble are also included in the Festive Tags Kit.
The double bow on the top of the ornament uses the black and white twine included in the Festive Tags Kit as well as the new online exclusive Gold Twisted Thread.
I’ll be back tomorrow with another “30 Days of Christmas” Christmas card and the AWH Colour Creations blog hop where we will be showcasing Gray Granite.
