Making Christmas Bright / Stamping With Melva

Making Christmas Bright

Friday 14 December 2018

Today's card is a "happy mistake" card. I started out with a completely different idea in my head, but I'm really pleased with how this card turned out. I don't do "clean and simple" cards typically, so I love when they come out that way.

Here's my card

I've been embossing Vellum Cardstock lately. You have to be a bit careful with which embossing folder you use as some may cause the vellum to crack. I tried the Swirls and Curls first for the card and it was a failure. I switched to the Cable Knit Embossing Folder and really like the result.

I stamped the sentiment from Making Christmas Bright in Shaded Spruce for the wreath and Real Red for the sentiment and punched it out. It is popped up with Dimensionals and a Star paper clip finished it off. I love the card and hope the recipients will as well.

Everything I used on this card is available in my Online Store. You can check out the list of supplies below.
