Christmas is sneaking up so I thought I would share my first Christmas card.
This was my card for Paper Temptress this week. The base is Brown Basis. The wreath was also cut from the Brown Basis.
I thought the Green Basis would make a great second layer. The Green Basis was also used as second layer on the sentiment. I used Kraft Treasures for the cable knit layer. It has a little texture and worked perfectly.
Olive Basis seemed to be the perfect cardstock for the greenery. Gold Pearl Linen was used for the sentiment. Last but not least was the shiny Red Ribbon Bow.

Troll For Aria
Good thing is that this is a birthday card for my granddaughter and it is actually done early. Guess what the theme of the part is. TROLLS
The base of this card is amethyst mica metallic. Mica metallic is shimmery and a really nice weight for the base.
I tried the Heavy Weight Vellum for the second layer. It embossed so nicely. I colored some of the areas on the back side.
The troll is actually 2 colors of Basis. The bottom layer is Pink Basis and the top layer is Magenta Basis. The wording is actually two colors. I tried Aqua Basis (light ) first and it was to light, so I cut the words in Teal basis and placed it on top of the first layer. It raised my words off the page and if you look at the side you can see the layers

For the Newlyweds
I wanted to carry on the heart theme. The first layer of the heart is Pink Ice Antique Parchment. The antique Parchment is a light pink variegated cardstock. Top heart is the Neenah Ivory again only I added distress ink to the cut out image. This cardstock took the ink accent just wonderfully. The sentiment is stamped on Gold Pearl Linen. The picture does not show it , but it has a beautiful shimmer to it.
Lastly the ribbon is some that I had in my stash.
