Scandanavian Season & Dazzling Diamonds

Here's another simple Christmas card which creates a great effect and will give your recipients the wow factor. Just stamp the tree from Scandanavian Season in real red. Pat versamark ink all over the piece of cardstock and then cover with heat'n'stick powder. Heat gently just until the powder begins to melt. Cover with dazzling diamonds and then reheat to just set the glue & glitter. Matt your image onto a piece of more mustard that is long enough to have some wording stamped on it in real red. I used celebrate from Wonderful Words. A piece of 5/8'' real red grosgrain ribbon finished my piece before I matted it onto a base card of garden green. The glitter looks fab on this type of project and you can you this process with sets like Silent Night where you can colour the church windows trees to give greater depth. Below is a similar example where I stamped the tree in choc chip and then coloured in parts of the design. Love you is a rub on that was trying to escape from my pack and so rather than waste it I've put it on here with a little gingham bow. Gone on have a go it is really easy!
