Shiny Tree

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Thank you for all the Thanksgiving wishes.
It was truly a day to be thankful

And now the Christmas rush begins...

 

I love Gina K Designs' for quick and elegant Christmas cards.

The hardest part of doing these cards is making sure ALL the embossing
powder is melted.

Sometimes I ink around the edges, but this time, I left it and just added
a strip of gold foil at top and bottom.  I was glad I saved those leftover strips.

Challenges:
Peace on Earth Christmas #52 - The top right picture of the mood board.
Krafty Chicks #691 - All Occasion (Christmas)
Simply Clean and Simple - ATG (did not use the option)


  




Card Recipe 
Stamps:  Sparkle & Shine (GKD)

Enjoy!

  5. I struggle with ensuring the embossing powder is melted too and it is often not until I have finished the card that I notice. I do love the gold on blue. Stunning xx

  17. Love that gold on the navy paper! Wish I'd think of designs like this. This turned out beautifully. I hear you about making sure all the embossing powder has melted especially with gold on blue!
