The Spellbinders Ornament die is again used for this card.
I love this die, it is so easy to decorate and the end
result is so impressive.
The embossing folder used for the background is from Cuttlebug.
I used a glossy white paper.
It was layered over a dark green that has
been trimmed to a narrow margin using
layering rulers.
The ornament has been cut from a polished stone
piece from my stash. I have a stack of various
polished stone pieces ready to use. It is a rather
messy technique and it is also addictive.
The bronze metallic looking embellishments on
the ornament have been made using a bronze gift
wrap that has been attached to card stock using
spray glue. This is another thing that I do in
huge amounts at once because of the mess.
I have a file with all kinds of gift wrap
attached to card stock for die cutting and backgrounds.
HINT - shop now for glitzy shiny gift wraps for die cutting
and backgrounds. The gold especially is usually to be found
only at Christmas. I use it year round. The gift wrap is so so so much
less expensive than the scrapbook store gold paper.
Oh, Shelly, Shelly. I have pinned this for all the world to see. That totally looks like a piece of hammered metal in such wonderful hues. What a treat!!
