Creative Nugget: I just realized that this card is very geometric...each of the basic shapes... circle, square, rectangles, and two triangles are represented! The Earth, a new stamp set by Our Daily Bread Designs, was clear embossed on a sheet of patterned paper in the new Christmas Collection 2013 paper pack. It was cut with a Circle Nestie and matted on Burgandy Kaisercard. The sentiment was gold embossed on the small rectangle layer and the Joy to the World music background was gold embossed on the larger rectangle. Each layer was edged with a gold pigment pen. The little poinsettia from the new Poinsettia Wreath stamp set was gold embossed, colored with Copic Markers, and cut with the matching Poinsettia Wreath Die. Gold micro beads were added to the center of the flower. The burgandy Decorative Corners Dies, gold pearls, and a gold bow finish the card.
This card will also be entered in the following Challenges:
