Bringing Home the Tree

Happy Christmas everyone,
This is the card I gave the Men in the family for Christmas.  I used S/U's 3D embossing Folder for the mat and placed a Real Red Mat behind that.  The image was stamped and coloured with Copics and I used just the tree stamping twice on the inside.  The Sentiment was stamped with Real Red and Versamark adding Gold E/Powder for two different finishes.  I also layered the sentiment die cuts for more dimension.
Thanks for stopping by today, glad to see you here.

Underwater Christmas

Hi there,
Today's card was a special request for a Christmas card.  I was asked to include an Underwater Scene, Dolphin and a Diver and this is what I came up with.  The Dolphin die is a bit larger than I wanted but I still think it works.  
I started by smooshing the Tumbled Glass Distress Ink onto the card front.  Then I stamped and fussy cut the rest of the items for the scene from Designer Paper.   I stamped the sentiment and added the Gems to finish off the front and also added some smooshing and a Turtle to the inside of my card.
Lovely to see you here today, thanks for your visit.
Wishing you a wonderful Festive Season, Merry Christmas.
Hugs,

Movie Buff Christmas

Hello Stampers,
Today's card was a request from a Friend for a card for his Son who is a Movie Buff.  I printed the poster from the Internet and matted it on the red card.  The background was dry embossed with the 3D embossing folder.  I stamped and fussy cut the aero plane.  The Sentiment was Hot Foiled which I attached as if a Banner had been placed on the poster.  I finished off with a picture of Alfred Hitchcock on the inside as requested.
Have a wonderful day, great to see you here.
