Welcome to this week 10 of the Heart of Christmas for 2024. I have a new stamp set for you today that I haven't used before and I wanted to get it out and give it a little bit of a try.

I love lanterns and so does my daughter so this was one of the stamp sets that I had to get and play with out of our Sept-Dec Mini this year.  For the card base I have used Pebbled Path and layered with Pecan Pie and then used the gorgeous Nests of Winter DSP before adding all the decorations.

I have stamped the lantern in Pebbled Path from the Light the Year stamp set on Basic White then added the candle stamped in Crumb Cake and coloured the flame with Daffodil Delight dark Stampin' Blend and the glow in the light blend. The Pine Cones are Stamped in Pecan Pie and Early Espresso and I really love how they turned out. I have die cut some leaves from the dies in Mossy Meadow and the fussy cut the sprigs of pine from the Seasons of Green and Gold Specialty DSP. To Finish off the arrangement before adding the gold embossed sentiment I have added a Poinsettia from the A Little Bit Festive Mix and Match Specialty DSP.

I have gold embossed one more sentiment on the inside of the card and layered with Pecan Pie to match the front.

The foliage above the lantern looks so luscious, very effective Sharon. Beautiful card

Beautiful card, Sharon with the lush foliage decorating the lantern and the background is perfect for it. I love the pine cones and they would work with so many other Christmas sets.

Gorgeous! I must confess to having missed this in the mini catalogue, but your card really wowed me. I love how you have combined the different elements for the foliage.
