Inspire Create Challenge #204 – Christmas!

Hello Everyone,

Today’s card is my design team make for the latest Inspire Create Challenge!

For Challenge #204 we are all making Christmas cards!

You can see the other design team projects and take part in the challenge by clicking below!

I have used the Modern Christmas specialty designer series paper to make my card.

The focal image was die cut from the designer series paper and layered on to Basic Black cardstock.

For the sentiment, I used the XXX stamp set and heat embossed in gold. This was added to a strip of gold foil and a vellum die cut shape.

The toppers were added to a white card base, which had more designer series paper adhered to it.

Black and gold twine and a few pearls brought the card together.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!
