Continuing Christmas cards

Here’s another easy to mass produce card if you’re panicking about Christmas looming. It’s very similar to yesterday’s in design, but different in result.

I used real red for the base and mat. The mat went through the big shot in the Stampin’ Up! Lucky Stars embossing folder. I thought that the stars didn’t stand out much, although they seem to in this photo, so I coloured in a few random stars using my gold Stampin’ dazzle marker. After a trip to Home Depot returning via Staples, my brother picked me up some metallic sharpies since I’d been lamenting the lack of a silver marker (it was on my Stampin’ Up! wish list but hadn’t made it to the big time). I found that the gold sharpie was a brighter colour and have been preferring it to the dazzle marker ever since.

I used the gold glimmer paper and the Wonderful Wreath framelits to cut out the Noel – using wax paper in between the paper and die to make it easier to get the paper and die apart. I carefully dotted tombow glue onto the back of the word in order to stick it onto the card.
