We are almost at the end of show and tell from my Christmas Card Class, I do hope you enjoyed seeing the cards we made.
The card today I love because of it's subtle look, but there are quite a few elements to it.
The card base is Cherry Cobbler, with a layer of Crumb Cake on top. The Crumb Cake layer was stamped 3/4 way down with Serene Snowflakes in Versamark ink and covered in Cherry Cobbler Embossing Powder. This was heated creating a lovely bright, textured background.
There was a further layer of Cherry Cobbler card and Crumb Cake card. The Crumb Cake layer was put through the Big Shot with the Perfect polka Dots Embossing Folder.
To top if off we added a 3D decoration. The image from Contempo Christmas was stamped onto Very Vanilla three times in Cherry Cobbler ink, then all three punched out with the Ornament Punch. They were folded in half and glued to form the 3D shape. I bow made from 1/8" Very Vanilla Taffeta Ribbon was added above with a glue dot.
At the bottom we added a length of Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding Ribbon and the sentiment from Contempo Christmas inked in Cherry Cobbler as well.
My friends have asked me to make them some of these cards to send to family, but they want a blue theme. I
will post a picture when I've finished them off.
I have one last card from this class to show you - it's very much Punch Art gone crazy. It will be on my blog before the week is out :o)
