Here's a non-traditional change-up for the holidays. It's perfect for my good friends of different faiths or cultures.
The Bella Blossoms large flower was heat embossed in black on Stampin' Up!'s Brushed Silver card stock. Hmmm . . . where have I seen that metallic card stock before? Click here for my example using Brushed Gold card stock. Très chic!
The corners were cropped with a Ticket Corner Punch and the panel was adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals on Basic Black. TIP: Before adhering the silver layer, I used a paper piercing template and a needle to precisely place the brads on the black card stock.
The layout for this card is from this week's Our Creative Corner sketch challenge. I used a Cuttlebug D'Vine Swirl Embossing Folder with Real Red card stock, to rev up the background. A simple rub-on sentiment from Stampin' Up!'s Chit Chat Rub-Ons (Rub-Ons Sale Ends Nov. 30) combined with these festive colors are all that's needed to say "holiday!"
