Hi friends, it Marla and I have another Christmas card to share. This card features the Holiday French Horn and Rustic Wreath dies. Dimension and layers make interesting and beautifully texture cards. I liked how both of these dies had foliage, which makes tucking in layers easy peasy. Let me walk you through the card process.
- Die cut all of the pieces using white card stock. Then die cut the french horn using metallic card stock. I chose to use flat gold metallic card stock.
- Color your images using a blending brush and ink.
- Add detail to the poinsettia layers and foliage with a Copic marker.
- Cut two pieces of white card stock to 4" x 5.25 and 3.25" x 4.75"
- Stamp the 4" x 5.25" card stock with an image of your choice. I used a sheet music stamp. Ink the stamp and spritz with water to get a slightly distorted image.
- Dry emboss the smaller cardstock for texture. I used an older wood grain embossing folder.
- Adhere the sheet music layer to an A2 top folding card base.
- Add foam tape to the back of the dry embossed layer and adhere at an angle on top of the stamped layer.
- Assemble the pinecones, poinsettias and bird. Add foam square behind the wing of the bird.
- Assemble the die cut pieces to the card front.
- Stamp the sentiment and use a fishtail die to cut out the sentiment
- Add foam tape to the back of the sentiment strip and adhere to the card front.
