Welcome to week 5 of the Heart of Christmas. This week I have a Boughs of Holly card for you that with a brush metallic card stock and your Cut & Emboss folder you are good to go!
So for my card today, I have used an Evening Evergreen card base and with the Brushed Metallic Cardstock in gold I have layered that under the Boughs of Holly DSP.
Under each holly leaf I cut out a copper brushed metallic cardstock pine needles. Here you can see I used a strip of the gorgeous Boughs of Holly DSP on the inside of my card to decorate.
In the centre of the card I have adhered the sentiment Peace & Joy that I have heat embossed in gold and fussy cut and tagged out with my papersnips. I put a double mini dimenional under them to give them a bit of height because of the holly leaves. Under the sentiment I have frayed some Shimmer Ribbon and of course we need a little bling so a little red and gold pearls from the Red and Green adhesive-backed pearls to finish off the card.
Now is the time to head to the next amazing crafter on our Heart of Christmas week 5 journey and this week you will be heading to the amazingly talented Kathryn Ruddick. I love to see how she uses her art knowledge and passion in her card making! Just hit the next blog button and you will go straight there.

Wow, cool idea to use the holly leaves in a wreath, they look great in gold too.
Your golden holly wreath looks amazing! I love the texture and layering on your card.
Gosh, this is beautiful, Sharon! I LOVE your idea to use the die-cut holly leaves to make a wreath. They look fabulous in gold, on that gorgeous background paper.
Snap my friend on the DSP and the stamp bundle! I love your holly wreath and I love that our cards are so different.
Beautiful card Sharon. I love the way you have used the gold holly leaves to create a wreath. The flagged sentiment is great in the centre of the wreath too. Xxx
Such an elegant card Sharon and the golden wreath looks wonderful with the beautiful paper as the backdrop.
I love your beautiful wreath card Sharon. I have looked at that piece of DSP a number of times and thought it rather dull. The inclusion of the brushed metallic gold really makes it shine. Very clever.
What a great idea to use those lovely holly leaves in a wreath formation, Sharon. So pretty with the darker DSP behind it, great design!
Ooh, gold foil elegance right here! I might just have to CASE your wreath Sharon - love it!
