Christmas sets with Lighthearted Leaves

The LightHearted Leaves set is so lovely to use. I am really enjoying colouring in the different images. Some with multicoloured leaves and some just plain.
This Christmas set uses Tip Top Taupe as the base, which I have decorated with a few simple horizontal lines scored with my scoring board and a strip of silver glimmer paper. The leaf image is stamped with Cucumber Crush which is such a gorgeous vibrant and fresh green. I have filled in the leaves with the blender pen and coloured the berries with a red marker. I have been wanting to try the technique for the edges and this card seemed the perfect one to use it. I simply ran the edges of the card (Saharah Sand) along the Versamrak ink pad, and then dragged the edges through a little pile of silver embossing powder. It's super easy and I love the effect.
To finish the berries I dotted some dazzling diamonds glue over the red.



Simple and easy, and a little bit stylish!
Thanks for looking, Liz

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car
