Christmas Card - Day 5

Hello Everyone!

Today I'm back again with 5th card  in the Christmas cards series for 2015. If you have just dropped, all my Christmas cards from past are here.

Let's first have a look at today's card  

Today's card is a very vintage and chic looking filigree card. I wanted to make a die-crazy card for a long time. I created the card base using the technique mentioned by Becca Feeken in this video here. I have used the Spellbinders - A2 Tranquil Moments die set. I used Distress Ink mini - Evergreen bough to add shading to the center piece. The sentiment from Hero Arts - Christmas Holiday Sentiment Clear Stamp set is stamped in same ink. The flower is created from the smallest 3 dies from Spellbinders - Rose Creations die set. I added a pinch of distress to the flower using Distress Ink mini - Tattered rose. The turquoise flourish is die cut from My Favorites things - Fancy Flourish. Finally embellished the flower & card with rhinestones. 

 I'm submitting this card to 3 challenges: Simon Says Stamp - Monday Challenge (Just a Pinch), Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday (Die Crazy), Color Throwdown #373

I hope you all liked it. I would love to hear back from you all. Thank you very much for taking your time to notice it. Hope to hear again from all of  u soon. Till then take care. :)

PS: If my posts inspire you to create something on similar lines, I feel highly flattered. But please, do respect the effort I take in conceptualizing and executing, please give a direct link to my work when you are inspired by mine. Thanks for understanding :-)
