The bright sunshine in Melbourne this morning was perfect for photographing today's card. It shows the beautiful colours in the Brushed Metallic Foil papers. The three different colours, bronze, copper and gold are available in a pack together in the Aug to Dec Mini Catalogue.
I cut random long triangle strips of each colour of foil. I then attached them to a base triangle of Merry Merlot that I cut using the stitched Triangle Dies.
The background is Merry Merlot card stock that has been embossed with the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder. The star on top of the tree is Gold Brushed Metallic card stock, cut using a Stitched Star Die.
The card base is Thick Very Vanilla card stock. I prefer to use the Thick Very Vanilla and Thick Whisper White for card bases as it adds to the stability of the card where as card bases from standard Whisper White and Very Vanilla tend to be flimsy. The trunk of the tree is a small piece of wood grain paper from the In Good Taste DSP pack.
All of the products used on this card are from Stampin' Up! and are available in my online store, the links are below.
Thanks for visiting,
Happy stamping,
Rachel
