Heart of Christmas - Week 9

Welcome to Week 9 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop. The team has some amazing Christmas projects to share with you tonight.

This card was inspired by Karen Hadler, who used the same technique to make a wedding card in different colours. I love the card she made and the technique she used so I turned it into a beautifully sparkly Christmas card.

The background of the card was sponged using Real Red and Shaded Spruce inks.

Shimmery White embossing paste which has been coloured using the Golden Glitz Delicata ink refill was then applied over the top of the background with one of the Basic Pattern Decorative Masks that are available in the Holiday Catalogue.

The 'Merry' from the Merry Christmas Dies was cut from a Gold Foil sheet. The Christmas was stamped in Golden Glitz Delecata ink on Shaded Spruce card stock. The small bauble from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set was also stamped in Golden Glitz Delicata ink.

The ribbon on top of the bauble was supposed to be the Gold Shimmery Ribbon from the Holiday catalogue but it is still making it's way to me so I had to improvise with a discontinued ribbon.

Here's a couple of close ups of the extra sparkly Golden Shimmery embossing paste and the beautiful Golden Glitz Delicata ink.

A huge thank you to Karen for her inspiration. I love this card so much it's going to be one of the projects at Saturday's class.

For more Christmas inspiration from the Art With Heart Team head to Claire's blog for a full list of tonight's participants.

If you have any questions about tonight's card please contact me and I will be happy to help.

Thank you for visiting and happy stamping,
Rachel
