My crafting ladies have asked that we do at least 2 Christmas cards a month this year
to avoid the last minute rush that usually happens .
Now wanting to disappoint - here's the first Christmas card of this year -
I am totally and unashamedly in love with it!
This is made using the Warmth and Wonder Hostess stamp set from the Autumn Winter Catalogue (which finishes on 29th January - so if you want this set better get your workshop booked quick!! )
I have loved using this set and it's one that I won't part with.
The tree is two step stamped in Old olive and Cherry Cobbler ink.
I have used Heat and Stick powder to apply the circle of Dazzling Diamonds glitter over the tree. The glitter stripes are applied using double sided tape with Silver Stampin' Glitter.
The embossed panel is made with the Textured Impressions Delicate Designs embossing folder,
The ladies loved it!!
