I made this quick Christmas card with lots of snippets - I know I use this embossing folder and stamp set a lot, but it's still one of my favourites for quick cards.
To make this card I used:
6" x 4" white matt card blank
Practical Publishing 'Opulent Baubles' embossing folder and stamps
Versafine Onyx Black ink
Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail embossing powder
Snippets of white matt card, red paper and red textured card
I embossed a piece of white matt card, trimmed around the edge so it was slightly smaller than the card blank and attached it to the front. I used black ink to stamp the joy bauble onto the red paper and embossed it with clear embossing powder. I then used the die from the embossing folder to cut the bauble before inlaying it into the front of the card. I stamped the bow onto a snippet of red textured card using black ink and then embossed it with clear embossing powder. I fussy cut the bow and attached it to the top of the bauble with a small foam pad.

It is a very pretty combination of the embossed background and the pretty bauble, and the deep red patterned paper makes a great contrast with the white background Kath. x
