A Gift of Love

It's Friday and I'm back to share another card I made for Heartfelt Creations!  Once again I am using the Season of Joy Collection!  The stamps and dies are just wonderful for making Christmas Cards of all shapes and sizes!  



Heartfelt Creations Products Used:
HCDP1 225 Frosty Blanket Paper Collection
HCPC 3557 Christmas Poinsettia PreCut Set
HCD 734 Sun Kissed Fleur Die
HCPC 3554 Love at Christmas PreCut Set
HCPC 3551 Holly Berry PreCut Set
HCD 738 Ornamental Add On Die
#459222 Paper Blossoms Tool Kit
#119391036 Rose Metallic 3D Stamp Paint

Other Supplies:  Burgundy and black paper, green card stock, watercolor paper, Memento Ink, seam binding, Scor-Tape, glue, gold seed pearls, glue

Instructions:  Card size 5” X 7”
Make card base using watercolor paper for stability.  Cover with black paper and then a piece of the pretty paper from the paper pack that I taped twp pieces of seam binding to.  Next I matted a rectangle of the design paper onto black paper and attached to card front.  Next I made the banner piece, stamped with the sentiment and taped it to the rectangle.  Tie a knot in the seam binding and then I tied a bow and adhered it with tape to the ribbon.  Next I stamped and cut out the flowers and leaves and I used the Rose metallic paint on the petals, shaped them and glued together.  Then I added the gold seed pearls to the centers.  I shaped the holly leaves some and cut out pieces of burgundy paper to fit over the holy berries.   Decide where you want everything to be placed on the card front and glue down. 

I hope you make one of these for your own Christmas Card Stash!  It is so rewarding and really not difficult at all!

Well this is it for me this morning.  I hope you take a little time out of your busy day and "Breathe".
