These cards are so fun to make and they are gorgeous in real life. My photos do not do them justice. I think I need a new phone!
My cards are created on white card bases. I added a silver foil layer on top of the white card base. I created two different alcohol ink backgrounds using Yupo paper. I cut them with a scalloped border. The Merry Christmas Ornament Wafer Die is from Simon Says Stamp. I cut it on white card stock. It is very delicate and it took me a few attempts to get it cut out without tearing the letters. I added rhinestones and silver twine to complete the card.
Do you have a favorite?

They both are beautiful. The ornament is lovely on the alcohol ink backgrounds. TFS
ReplyDeleteStunning cards Claire, the colours are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteBoth are gorgeous, Claire! Very festive and elegant! XX
ReplyDeleteThese are both absolutely beautiful...love your gorgeous backgrounds with those sweet Christmas ornament dies on top, simply perfect!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Claire! What a gorgeous background! I think my favorite is the green one, more color variation.
ReplyDeleteI have that ornament die and I need to try it out in my Gemini to see if I can get a clean and easy cut! Thanks for the reminder!
ReplyDeletePS: I have a very good camera or my phone but no photo can ever do a card justice. They just look so awesome IRL that you can't capture them in a photo.
ReplyDeleteThese are both fabulous Claire - what a fun way to keep adding to your Christmas card stash! I think the green one is my favourite, but it’s a close call - I am in awe of your fabulous alcohol ink backgrounds!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! Such pretty designs!
