Some more Christmas Inspiration - Believe

A very good evening to you! I hope you have all had a good weekend:)

Today I am sharing another Christmas card with you using the new Heartfelt Creations Festive Christmas collection that was officially launched last Wednesday.  Just a reminder that I will Create & Craft on 26th August with this collection and as far as I am aware the times are 1pm and 5pm, but I will keep you posted on this.

Believe



  • I have used just the Festive Christmas paper pad this card.
  • I have chosen one of the 6" square panels and adhered this to a white  7" square card base.
  • I have die cut out the Spellbinder 2011 Heirloom Ornament die template in red card stock and adhered this with foam pads to the card.
  • Next I have die cut out the Dove image, again from the paper collection using the Spellbinder die template - Stately Circles and adhered it to the centre of the Christmas Ornament.
  • To create the Poinsettia I have used the Heartfelt Creations Sun Kissed Fleur die and the Christmas Poinsettia stamp. 
  • To create the Holly I have used the Heartfelt Creations Ornamental Add On Die set and the coordinating stamp - Holly Berry.
  •  Next I have die cut out the sentiment from the paper pad using the Tags and Luggage die set.
  • To finish off  the card I have used some Cosmic Shimmer Mica Flakes, pearls, gems and added a red bow with a Hobby House spacer and brad to the top of the Christmas Ornament.
I just love the warm traditional  feel that this Christmas Collection has and I hope I have inspired you  to maybe start your Christmas cards:)

Take care x

    Hi Nikki, your festive card has star quality and is so beautifully embellished. The two turtle doves are really pretty die cut and layered this way. A traditional theme with a gorgeous modern twist. Lovely!

    Wow,what a difference a day makes, I looked at this card yesterday, and couldn't 'see' the birds in the centre at all. Today I can see them! How odd is that?
