Stampin' Up - Heart of Christmas - Week 2


Hello and welcome hope you have had a beautiful day.

It is week 2 of Christmas inspiration and I have used the gorgeous Merry Merlot card stock as my base and paired it with the Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Serious Paper, you are going to love this DSP when you get your hand on it.

My card is a simple layout this week. I have firstly heat embossed copper stars from the Illuminated Christmas on the base card who doesn't like copper? Another reason to love the Joyous Noel Specialy DSP. Then I cut a small 1 1/2 inch strip of the DSP layered it with Sahara Sand and Traquil tide before adding that to my card base.

Now for the beautiful copper sentiment on the front. I have heat embossed in copper Rejoice from His Light stamp set and then Christ is Born from the same set underneath it on  shimmery white card stock before layering it with sahara sand and tranquil tide. It came up just gorgeous on the shimmery white  card stock. I used the exquisite Merry Merlot and copper reversible ribbon around the sentiment before adhering it to the card.

On the inside of the card we need to decorate as well and I took a strip of the Joyous Noel DSP layered it with the tranquil tide card stock to edge the inside. The saying for the middle of this card comes from Illuminated Christmas but pairs so well with His Light stamp set.
