I know, I know, we haven't even had Thanksgiving yet, but it will be here before we know it and then Christmas will be upon us, so why not get a head start with some of your cards by joining us this week for our White on White Christmas challenge over at
BBTB2? I have never done a white on white card, so I was excited to figure something out for this. I bought the Holly embossing folder from The Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby) a while ago and I really wanted to put it to use. My base card is A2 standard white cardstock, then I have a silvery/gray base mat to set my embossed mat apart. I cut the Holly cut from Christmas Cheer, but just used the leaves. I embossed those with Swiss Dots and cut the shadow out of the same silver/gray paper as the base mat. I popped the three leaves up on some foam tape. My rhinestones are from Freckled Fawn, and I think they are perfect for this card - just adds that pop of color! My sentiment is from a Hero Arts Christmas set and I stamped it using some Studio G Silver ink on white cardstock. The shadow piece behind the sentiment is also the same paper as the mat and shadow pieces and I used The Paper Studio's Cloud scissors to cut around the edges. It too is popped up on some foam tape. Head on over to
BBTB2 and see all the DT's amazing projects then link yours up so we can see what you created!
I love the idea of using the rhinestones! This card came out great!
