It's Rudolph Day again - time is flying by, where is this year going? My Rudolph Day theme this year is to use items that have been cover gifts with magazines. This card uses an 'Opulent Baubles' set that was a cover gift a Practical Publishing magazine - although I can't recall which one.
I embossed a piece of white card and trimmed the edges before attaching it to the card blank - the embossing folder had also die cut the bauble shape from the embossed panel. I attached a snippet of green marbled paper onto a snippet of card and stamped the bauble with black ink before embossing it with clear embossing powder. I placed the bauble into the embossing folder and die cut it before inlaying it into the card. I stamped the bow onto a snippet of green textured card using black ink and then embossed it with clear embossing powder. To finish I fussy cut the bow and attached it to the top of the bauble.
