An Elegant Christmas

I just love this Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper and I wanted to make a few simple but elegant cards that made a bit of a statement.  I knew this paper and this stamp set were perfect for that.   

Here is what I came up with…


The card base is cut from Night of Navy cardstock that is cut 5 ½ x 8 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”.  I then cut a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼” and added a piece of the Brightly Gleaming Specialty DSP that measured 3 ¾ x 5” on top of that (I love this one with the ornaments but they are all beautiful).  Once I had my DSP adhered to my Pretty Peacock layer, I wrapped a piece of the copper colored ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack around this layer and tied a simple square knot.

I used my Layered Ovals dies (I use these all the time) to cut out a circle from Night of Navy cardstock which I stamped with a beautiful sentiment from the For Unto Us stamp set using Versamark ink.  I did heat emboss this using some retired copper embossing powder but gold or silver would be pretty as well.  I then cut out the next larger scalloped circle from the die set from Copper Foil.  I attached the two together and then placed them on the card using Dimensionals.  As you can see this was a fast and simple card.

I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and much more on my website at https://craftwithronnie.stampinup.net or by click the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.
