Ornament Keepsakes

Since I read on Facebook that there are only 16 Saturdays until Christmas (which is crazy seeing as I’m still in shorts here), I think it’s time for another Christmas card.

ornament cream on cherry cobbler

Base: Very vanilla 8.5″ by 5.5″ scored and folded

Upper layer: Cherry cobbler 4″ by 5.25″

Stamp set: Ornament Keepsakes (retired Aug 28)

Other: Wondrous Wreath framelits, ornament keepsake framelits, cherry cobbler embossing powder, embossing buddy, heat gun, stampin’ dimensionals

Ink: Versamark

I’m really enjoying making these cards with various ornaments and in various colours. I first rubbed a scrap of very vanilla with the embossing buddy and then stamped one of the ornaments on it. I sprinkled on the cherry cobbler embossing powder and used the heat gun to make it shiny and raised. I then easily cut out the ornament with the matching framelits and attached it to the cherry cobbler mat with stampin’ dimensionals. The noel is part of the Wondrous Wreath framelits and I cut it out using a scrap of very vanilla.

    Sixteen Saturdays?? The cream and red are obviously a good traditional combination for a Christmas card, but the Noel text gives it a more modern twist. I never noticed this before but, technically, it should really be Noël! Accents aside, I think the dark red is a really nice contrast to the cream, especially given the pattern of the ornament. Another lovely card, Liz!
