Good Morning All.
So Ive finally made a start on this years Christmas cards. Kicking it off with these simple ones using a lovely paper cuts die. Still using up my pile of cardstock, these are using a lovely soft gold pearl card as the base.
6x6 " card. After making my cardbase from the soft gold card i die cut the 3 kings die from the front and then added a little colour with oxide inks in peacock, pistachio & violet. I then made inserts from colourful heavyweight Christmas paper which i glued inside, this then makes the card more study to compensate for most of the card front being missing. I only added a little glue to near the spine on the front of it so that the front is free which hopefully you can see from the photo - just to add some interest to what is otherwise a completely flat card. I added a strip of the paper i used for the insert to the bottom of the front to help tie it together.
Soft gold pearl with a blue insert. peacock, crackling campfire & violet oxide inks
and a purple insert version. Crackling campfire, peacock & pistachio oxide inks. Sadly the photos don't show how love the gold pearl card is. This die cut through the 300gsm cardstock perfectly first time - ideal for batch making those Christmas cards.
Items Used:
Creative Expressions papercuts die 'We three kings edger'
Soft gold Pearl 300gsm cardstock
12x12 paper pads - the works
