Sweet Sunday.......Merry




Happy Sunday Peeps!!!


Here is the sweet sketch Karen has for us this week:


I decided to make a Christmas card, I have had a few new goodies for quite some time now and have not used them, Love this new Poinsettia set from Stampin Up called  "Joyful Christmas". I stamped the poinsettia twice onto some real red card stock using Versamark and then embossed with white embossing powder. I did the same with the leaves on old olive card stock. I then cut out and layered up the flower and added the leaves.


I then used the new Expressions thinlits called "Expressions" How fun is that Merry cut out of the Gold Foil Sheets? 
The base of the card is Basic Black card stock and then a layer of Real Red and then an embossed piece of White. I added some basic pearls in the center of the poinsettia that I colored with a copic marker. I used some old olive card stock for the small flag at the top along with an antique bard.



Be sure and check out what the rest of the girls did with this sketch:

    This is fabulous, Vicki! I'm definitely going to have to get this stamp set. Could I just ask, since the 'merry' die is so thin, how do you attach it? Just glue? x
