Merry Christmas to you all

Good Morning everyone

Today im sharing my last Christmas cards of the year.  I used a tree panel die for the background and some of my alcohol inked mirror card for the reindeer


Size approx 4.5.5"   I first made a background with oxide inks and pixie powders.  This card essentially came about after a previous card  - see here -  to use up the left over trees.
I then die cut the tree panel from white card and adhered to a larger panel from gold glitter card.  I then paper pieced the green trees back into place. I adhered the first green panel to the base card and then the tree panel on top at an angle.  
I die cut the reindeer from scraps of alcohol inked mirror card, mounted onto a die cut circle from vellum with stamped greeting to finish.

Just a close up,the photo doesn't really show the shine from the mirror card but i love the mottled effect using the pink & purple alcohol inks on silver mirror card gives.

Version 2 was red alcohol inks on gold holographic mirror card, you can make out the holographic shimmering.  

Items Used:
Tree background panel die - unknown brand
MFT deer love die
Circle die
Oxide inks - pistachio, twisted citron, peacock feathers
Pixie powder
Tim holtz alcohol inks
Gold glitter card - B&M
Silver mirror & Gold holographic card - B&M
Vellum - papermania
White card - CraftUK ltd

Thank you for stopping by today and all your support this year.  Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy & Healthy new year.  Stay safe.  Hugs Emmaxxx
