A Fine and Delicate Christmas
by Rachel Duong
Just a few more sleeps and Christmas is here! Hi, it's Rachel and I am here to share one more card with you before the special day arrives. I used the Poppystamps "Nordic Border Set" and the "Layered Holly Branch" dies for this soft and pretty creation.
I love the intricate detail of the background. It is just gorgeous with white on a white cardbase. I painted the holly in a mixed palette of green distress inks to give them depth and character.
Another look at the entire card before we go on.
The Poppystamps "Lavish Merry Christmas" sentiment is a beautiful font and pairs perfectly with the delicate lace. It also comes with a shadow but I chose not to use it on this card. I wanted each piece to be light and airy! A soft red cardstock was just the right fit from the Memory Box "Berry Red Collection".
For the finishing touch, I adhered Open Studio "Fairy Jewels" in a precious mauve hue!
I hope you love this card as much as I do. The Poppystamps "Nordic Border Set" is so stunning, it pretty much sets the stage for something magical to happen!
Wishing you peace and joy during and throughout the season....
