Good Morning everyone, i hope you are having a good week
Today is a couple of Christmas cards using a tree background die which i combined with glitter
I first made a background using oxide inks in shades of green, i then die cut the tree panel from it, attached to double sided adhesive sheet that id attached to cardstock and sprinkled over dark grey sizzix biodegradable glitter and burnished in. I attached this panel to charcoal cardstock mat and then a white base card.
I die cut merry christmas from white card and another from the charcoal card i used for matting the tree panel. Layered the sentiment onto an inverted scalloped circle coloured using the same inks as the background, then matted one onto a white circle and one onto grey and then a vellum circle. I then attached to the bottom right of my card. I added a little die cut glittered tree to the centre of my sentiment.
