I thought I would share a Christmas Card with you for Creative Scrapbooker using some products from Heartfelt Creations
The mini poinsettias and leaves along with that delicate holly branch are from last year, but still one of my favorites go-to’s when doing Christmas Cards.
So let’s get started.
So let’s get started.
First, we will need to cut our papers, the card base is a 6×12 folded in half; the dark green is 5.75 x 5.75. I like the border the white automatically creates, if you prefer to have the green go to the full 6×6, that would look lovely too. The red is 5.25 x 5.25 and the wood looking paper is cut from the reverse of the center of this one and measures 5×5.
Using the Ornament Die set from Heartfelt; center the large die in the middle of the 5×5 wood grain paper and die cut out.
Let’s continue with stamping some poinsettias and holly. Using the holly cluster stamp and die set, stamp and cut out one set of the large poinsettias and 2 sets of the holly leaves on white card using Ranger Black Archival Ink.
pierce the center of the poinsettias using the paper piercer to make room for the stamen, this is easier to do before misting the images as the paper can tear if you do this when the images are wet.
Pierce center of poinsettia. Lightly mist and mold from the back. Insert stamen and a bit of glue. Detail with crystal clear when dry cut off the rest of the stamen and set in the center of the holly leaves.
Using the O Holy Night Stamp and Die set. Stamp the image on Canson watercolor paper and use the wink the of Stella to color using your choice of Ranger Distress Inks. I used peeled paint; wild honey; vintage photo; Victorian velvet and a bit of broken china.
