Poinsettia Embossed Christmas Card - Stamp Around UK Video Hop

 Hi Everyone,



Video Tutorial

Materials

1 piece of thick basic white card 5 7/8" x 8 1/4"

1 piece of copper/gold foil 3 7/8" x 5 5/8" and scraps for the die cuts

Instructions

On the long side score the thick white card at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make the card base.

Run the copper/gold foil piece through the machine in the embossing folder.

Die cut a set of petals (3 sizes), 2 sprigs from the copper/gold foil and a flower centre and the scalloped rectangle from the basic white card.

Curve the petals with the bone folder to give them a little dimension and then layer them up, offsetting the petals on each layer. In the video I tried to glue them but it wouldn't stick, so I have used a dimensional between each layer, but you could use glue dots too.

Heat emboss the sentiment in the lower right corner of the scalloped rectangle and one on the inside of the card (watch the video if you are new to heat embossing).

Adhere the embossed layer to the card front and then add the scalloped rectangle using dimensionals. Arrange the flower on this layer with dimensionals and then adhere the sprigs and tuck them in under the petals.

I do hope that you like my pretty card. If you want to wtch my video and see what everyone else has made too, click on the link above to take you to my YouTube channel and all the other videos are listed in the description box beneath the video.
