For today’s card I’ve gone for a more traditional feel using a black, white and silver colour scheme and some of the music paper from the Merry Music Speciality Designer Series Paper.
I took a Basic Black card base and embossed the greetings in silver in the top left and bottom right hand corners of the card. Make sure you use the embossing buddy to avoid extra marks on your card.
To make the background piece I cut a piece of the dsp to 10.5cm x 8cm, then ripped the top and bottom diagonally across to create rough edges. Take the Versamark pad and run it along these edges and then emboss with silver powder.
To make the focal point of the card cut out the outline star shape from the Starlight Thinlits in vellum and the largest detailed star in Silver Foil stuck on to the multipurpose adhesive sheet, then stick the two stars together. To finish off the card front take some silver metallic thread and wrap in round your fingers to create a large loop. stick this onto the card front using small amount of tear and tape to adhere, behind where the star will go. Add the star to the top of the silver loops and the card front is complete.
To complete the inside of the card I took a piece of whisper white cardstock measuring 10cm x 14cm. Then take the Basic Black archival ink and stamp the large detailed star image in the bottom right corner.
Thank you for joining me today, tomorrow’s card will feature the Snowflake sentiments stamp set from the new autumn/winter catalogue.
