7 Days of Christmas - Day 1

Hello Everyone!!!

With the holiday season just around the corner, everyone must be really in hurry to finish off all the card making and post the card off to your loved ones. But then there is always someone that gets left out or you need more last minute cards or gift tags for someone. So this year I am going to post a few easy Christmas / Holiday themed projects which can help you get through the holiday season.

You can view all my past Christmas cards ideas here.

So lets have a look at today's card.

This is a super easy project. here is how I created it.

1. I started by gold embossing the background on white cardstock. 
2. Then I gold embossed a poinsettia image on bristol cardstock and colored it with watercolor.
3. I cut out the poinsettia , attached to the center of the background using foam tape.
4. Added accent colors on the background, attached a few pearls to the background.
5. Finally stamped & gold embossed sentiment, attached it below the poinsettia using glue.
6. Finished the card by attaching the white card panel on a A2 sized maroon card base.

I am submitting this card to :

1. Simon Says Stamp - Monday Challenge - Christmas / Winter Holidays
2. AAA Cards Challenge #105 - Sparkle
3. Paru's Card Making Challenge - Christmas theme
