Christmas Star

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

I hope you're having a good week.  It's like summer here with heat and humidity.
It's a good time to stay inside and work on cards.


This is pretty straight forward with die cutting and embossing.

I did swipe the embossed snowflakes with white ink and embossed the die cut
foil star with the same embossing folder.

Such a pretty EF you have used on your Christmas card and I love the white ink on the embossed snowflakes, and then the silver star embossed with the same over the top looks beautiful Bonnie. x

Pretty Christmas card. Love that you embossed the star with the same EF. Way to go to get those Christmas cards done early. TFS

I adore your white ink-swiping on the navy, Bonnie! Such a gorgeous card - one that could be repeated many times to build one's stash pretty quick, right?
Love that!

I love the bright pop of silver atop your deep, moody base -- both embossed, and looking perfect!

The white swiped EF is so effective Bonnie and using the same embossing folder to create the focal star was inspired! Vicky x

Beautiful and rich! I love how you've combined the snowflakes and star, and what a fabulous star it is! This is a great design for multiples. I can imagine it in many colors. Good progress on your Christmas cards, Bonnie!
