A quick Christmas card today using a new die I bought to make some last minute cards.
I trimmed a piece of white card so it was slightly smaller than the card blank and die cut the bauble from the centre. I trimmed a snippet of pale gold paper so it was slightly smaller than the panel and sprayed it with Spray & Sparkle. When the paper had dried I placed it to the rear of the white panel and attached it to the card front. I die cut and embossed the bauble from a snippet of dark blue pearlescent card and inlaid it into the card front.
To make this card I used:
6" x 6"white matt card blank
Xcut 'Large Ornate Bauble' die
Snippets of white matt card, dark blue pearlescent card and pale gold paper
Crafter's Companion Spray and Sparkle

Oh, Kath, this is magnificent! I'll bet the shine and texture in person is remarkable! I can just imagine running my fingers over it and I'll bet doing all that inlay was therapeutic. Thank you for sharing with everyone at NBUS! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Love and holiday Hugs, Darnell
