Hello today - thanks for popping in and are you enjoying some creative time??
I am, and I'm adding to my Christmas stash today with this very bright shiny embossed card.
Before Christmas I shouted myself this 3D embossing folder and of course had to see how it impressed straight away.. but then the panel sat in my pile not knowing what to do with it - SO shiny on silver mirror card. Today I decided to emboss and fussy cut three of the ornaments in different coloured metallic card and pop them up with foam tape..... it looks very cool, but very tricky to photograph. Finished off attaching to a white card with a stamped and black embossed sentiment.
I am playing along with Christmas Card Throwdown 52CCT4-21 - Metallic Papers .... also Rudolph Days January challenge, Pixie's Snippets Playground #395 .... and NBUS Challenge #22.
Hope you have a wonderful creative weekend and stay safe
