Christmas in June


 Today I have a Christmas card that I made with traditional colors. I used a Sizzix Snow Globe embossing folder to emboss a piece of white cardstock, and I colored the raised portions with Copic markers. The Kaiser Craft sentiment was die cut with mirror gold and placed on red and green panels cut with Gina Marie Designs Venetian Label dies, and placed on a matching green card base.

Sharing this with the following challenges:

  11. You have incredible patience, Carol! Wow! Any little berry and leave coloured with markers, and so well! I would certainly have made a mess, but your work looks great and very accurate! A work of love for sure! The Venetian label you used here in in some your past cards is very beautiful for focal point and the gold sentiment perfect for this festive card. Well done!
    I'm late, but wish you a great rest of the week! ;)
    Big hugs!!

  12. That looks amazing! It must have taken patience to colour all those embossed elements but it was certainly worth it.

    Thanks for joining me at the Rudolph Days Challenge.

  14. Your Christmas card is elegantly traditional! The Sizzix Snow Globe embossing folder adds a festive texture, beautifully enhanced by the Copic marker coloring. The Kaiser Craft sentiment in mirror gold, framed with red and green panels from Gina Marie Designs Venetian Label dies, creates a classic holiday look that's perfect for the season.
