Holly Christmas...

Holly Christmas.....




In our most recent workshop, 'Holly Christmas', our Ladies and Gentlemen made two beautiful holly inspired Christmas cards. 









Both of the cards were made using Sue Wilson's new 'Christmas Die - Holly Mini Striplet' - ( CE-CED3039). 




To create the beautiful backgrounds, they used two different Embossing Folders. The first was 'Creative Expressions 5 3/4" x 7 1/2" Embossing Folder - Frosty Swirls' - (CE-EF-047). 





The second was 'Creative Expressions A4 Embossing Folder- Swirling Holly' - (CE-EF-023). 






On both of the cards, they dyed the Seam-binding using Tim Holtz Distress Inks, in colours 'Peeled Paint' and 'Fired Brick'. On the first card the 'Peeled Paint' ink pad was also used to colour the edges of their embossed backgrounds. Just giving the card a subtle hint of the colour of the bow. 






A Cheery Lynn die was used for the wording on the first card. 'Cheery Lynn Design Die - Merry Christmas (set of 2) - (CT-B186). 




Mark Richards Nail Heads were used to decorate the Striplet in colour - Cranberry.



We hope you like our cards from this weeks workshops.
