Hello, and welcome to the Art With Heart team's heart Of Christmas Blog Share. I'm hosting again this week, while Claire has some family committments to keep her busy. It's Week 11 this week, and we are inching ever closer to the big day!
This week I have a simple card that I made as a class sample. It uses quite a few different products from the Holiday Catalogue, so maybe simple isn't the right word! I started by cropping a Sitiched Circle in Very Vanilla, and then used my Pine Tree punch to punch an opening in the circle. I backed it with some DSP from the Night Before Christmas DSP pack. I love how it looks like lights on the tree. I topped the tree with a copper Star Designer Element.
The DSP on the base is also from the Night Before Christmas pack. I adhered a strip of Copper Foil to each long edge, and then I wrapped a length of the Christmas Very Vanilla/Copper Classic Weave Ribbon around it before I adhered it all to the base. Oooh, I nearly forgot that I stamped the tiny stars from So Many Stars on the base card using Celestial Copper Delicata Ink before adding the rest.
The inside is nice and simple, with more stars across the bottom and a sentiment from So Many Stars. It leaves a lot of room for writing a Christmas message to the recipient.
Time now to pop on over to see the rest of this week's Heart Of Christmas cards. Click on each name to take you to their blog.

Tina I love the way you've used the DSP to show the lights on the tree and by using the negative you have a little tree for another card - so clever xx
ReplyDeleteLove your card Tina and I love how you punched out the tree in the circle.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Tina! Love those little stars either end of the circle layer. Really adds wow! Thanks for hosting this week :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the perfect DSP for the tree, love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you have used the scattered star/dots stamp to highlight your tree and along the bottom of your insert Tina. It really gives it some texture.
ReplyDeleteLovely card Tina, I love the speckles around the circle and along the bottom of the inside of the card.
ReplyDeleteOh Tina, this is so lovely.
