Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas

Today we have Hazel Harler

with her gorgeous Christmas Card

just for you:

 "For my Christmas card I used a cream square card blank

Some of the Kaisercraft papers that I used

I distressed the edges of the green script paper 

and turned it over to sponge 

peacock feathers distress ink on the edges

I turned the paper back over and sprayed frost Color Bloom over it

I wrapped some bakers twine round the paper and made a bow 

then I glued the paper to the card blank. 

I tore the edges of the corrugated card and dry brushed some gesso over it. 

For the bauble I embossed some white card and die cut the bauble 

with a Memory Box die, I coloured the raised areas 

with peacock feathers distress ink. 

I die cut the holly leaves with a Sizzix holly branch die, 

for the other leaves I used a Sizzix thinlits die and gold card, 

I used a punch for the berries. 

I glued everything to the card and put stickles on the holly leaves,

 berries and round the edges

 Here is a close up showing the stickles on the leaves

Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas"
