Holiday Card Series 2016 – Day 25
Happy Saturday, all! Today’s card and video are Day 25 of the Holiday Card Series for 2016. While this is the last official card of the Holiday Card Series, I will still be sharing some holiday cards through Christmas Day. So stay tuned!
For today’s cards–yes, multiple!–I decided to revisit one of the techniques from last year. I loved the watercolor ombrΓ© backgrounds from Day 14 that I embossed using Next Level embossing folders. I thought it would be cool to have some snowflakes over the top. :)
I used Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors for the ombrΓ© backgrounds. Then I die cut a bunch of snowflakes using the Penny Black A Blizzard die set.
I ran the watercolor backgrounds through my Big Shot machine with the Geometric Next Level Embossing Folders to give that that awesome texture. Then I adhered the snowflakes and a greeting (stamped on vellum using the greetings in the Cute Snowflakes stamp set from Simon Says Stamp).
To finished off the card, I adhered some 8mm and 5mm sequins from Darice using Ranger Multi Medium Matte adhesive.
I hope you enjoy today’s video! And I want to say a special thank you to all of you for your support of the Holiday Card Series. It’s one of my most favorite times of the year to create cards. :)
