BLESSED CHRISTMAS

  Welcome to this 29 day series of Christmas cards for the 2021 holiday season, so glad you're here with me.  Hope you get lots of inspiration and entertainment right up to Christmas day!  


Getting glam with today's card - lots of gold, and regal purple.


TECHINIQUES

preinked embossing folder (purple background)
ink blending (ornaments)
heat embossing (ornaments, sentiment)
die cutting (blessed - stacked a couple times)
fussy cutting (ornaments)
masking (ornaments so I'd have a white edge around the outline after ink blending)
patterned paper (greenish strip)



SUPPLIES

ornament stamps - Hero Arts Fancy Notes Heritage Ornaments set #LL882 plus Hanging Ornament single stamp #E2885
sentiment stamps - Hero Arts Stamp & Cut Merry set #DC170
die - Momenta #32265 R8
inks - Brilliance Galaxy Gold, Distress Oxides: Wilted Violet, Salty Ocean, Faded Jeans, Chipped Sapphire, Cracked Pistachio and Peacock Feathers
folder - Sizzix for Stampin' Up! 
patterned paper - Prima Firefly Collection #845216
powder - Ranger Gold
gold mirror cardstock - random
gold cording - random


And a plainer version, which I like, but I wish I’d extended the bulbs further down. 
(I used a mix of gold metallic watercolor paints on the metal ornament collars)





 

Thanks for visiting today and I will see you back here tomorrow for another Christmas card!
