Sometimes an image on the Peace on Earth mood board just makes me want to completely recreate it as a card. That's what happened this time. See the bottom left image in the mood board at the end of my post. Here's my card:
I cut the solid die of the ornament out of leftover acrylic packaging, then cut the filigree overlay out of gold shimmer cs. Glued them together and added them to a pine branch background that I embossed onto dark green shimmer cs. I used two sizes of hole punches to cut little round circles out of the leftover gold shimmer cs and randomly glued them to the background.
We'd love to see you at Peace on Earth. There's lots more inspiration from the rest of the Design Team. Here's the mood board to inspire you:

I'm also entering my card at the Tic Tac Toe challenge. I chose the diagonal line with "die cuts / free / embossing, wet or dry".

Supplies:
Stamps - unknown sentiment
Ink - ColorBox gold
Paper - white cs, green shimmer and gold shimmer cs
Size - A2
Accessories - sentiment banner die, scrap of acrylic packaging, Memory Box ornament die, green/gold ribbon, two sizes of hole punches, Sizzix pine branch embossing folder


A beautiful ornament and a brilliant idea to use the embossing folder underneath to 'hang' your ornament!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so opulent looking Susan with the gold die cut bauble against the rich green of the pine branch embossed background, and the two different sizes of punched circles you have added around it look great...a terrific card. x
ReplyDeleteOH WOW . . . how pretty! Great job!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Susan. Your gold ornament has such a pretty, ornate design and it looks amazing against the dark green background. xx
