My last Christmas card for this season is for someone very near & dear to me.
The background designer paper is Heartwarming Hugs. The poinsettias are fussy-cut from Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper.
I die-cut the heart first before embossing it with one of my favorite folders to give it some texture. The sentiment, from Itty Bitty Christmas, is fussy-cut.
Have a very blessed Christmas and a joyful New Year!
Even though Hanukkah is over for this year (December 10-18), I wanted to share this card because I was so pleased with this simplicity of it.
I designed this for my friend who celebrates Hanukkah. Often called the Festival of Lights, the holiday celebrates with the lighting of the menorah, traditional foods, games and gifts. Lighting the special, nine-branch candelabrum is the main ritual of Hanukkah. There are nine candlesticks - one for each night of Hanukkah and an extra one to light the others.
My candles are 1/2" strips of Brightly Gleaming Designer Paper. The flames are cut from copper foil sheets using the "egg" of the Birds & More Dies!
All of the copper foil accents make this simple card striking! The sentiment is included in the Snowflake Wishes stamp set.
Hi Friends,
I'm mixing it up on this card with two of my favorite colors - Balmy Blue and Highland Heather.
I used a variety of die sets to create this - Playful Alphabet, So Many Snowflakes, Stitched So Sweetly & Tasteful Labels.
