I gold heat-embossed this pretty SU! image from the "Christmas Blessings" set on red cardstock, then cut it with a Lil Inkers stitched rectangle die. I added a vanilla panel along with a pastel green card base (both also cut with Lil Inker stitched rectangles) and finally heat-embossed the gold sentiment from Northwoods.
I'm sharing this with the Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge CHNC #318 which is anything goes as long as it's Christmas with an option of "no sentiment." I skipped the option and added a matching gold sentiment.
Have a happy Monday and thanks for stopping by!

It may have been quick, but it's stunning! LOVE that pop of gold and the sentiment. Gorgeous card.

The heat embossing flower looks lovely Carol, I need to do more embossing but I get so messy especially using frantage.xx

ReplyDeleteThat image is absolutely gorgeous Carol!! I just love the delicate style especially with the gold embossing and stitched edging! Love your Christmas inspiration too my friend! :) HUGS
ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity of that beauty, Caro. The stitched panels really do add so much to them. I need to get me some of those! By the time I order them they'll be out of style. LOL
ReplyDeleteThe lighter shade of green is very nice backing up the white and Xmas red. Have a great day.
A fabulous card Carol, such a beautiful embossed image.
