Merry Merry Christmas Card

I love the printed vellums that we've have over the last couple of catalogues from Stampin' Up! and these from the Holiday Fancy Foil Designer pack are no exception.  Just look how a simple card can say 'wow look at me' and you can recreate it very simply.

The vellum comes in a pack of 9 sheets with 3 each of 3 designs.  I've used the tree design here with the Christmas Greetings thinlits and Holly Jolly stamp set and a tree from the annual catalogue stamp set Lots of Joy.  As you know I love my little bits of bling and so a pie crust rhinestone is just a perfect alternative to a traditional tree star.

A quick tip

To fasten your vellum matting layer to your base card why not consider using a stapler which not only fixes the vellum in place, but it adds texture and stops you having to have glue marks under the vellum.

Hope you had a  great weekend.  I was at my cornet lesson with the children.  I so love sharing the joy of learning how to play an instrument with them. I'm just a bit slower than them, but I'm improving with practice so hanging in there for now.
