I made this card for the ODBDSLC84 Metallic challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs (Shining the Light Challenge) which is to use white/ivory, silver/gold and one of two other colors.
For my card I used the Ornaments 2 stampset. What a fun set with a variety of sentiments and three beautiful ornaments. This set coordinates with the Heirloom Ornaments 2011 Spellbinder dies. The embossing is done with a Sizzix Poinsettia Embossing Folder. I added Gold Baubles inside the poinsettias. The border along the top is Spellbinders Holly Accents. The sentiment is cut out and mounted with the Spellbinders Petite Ovals and Fancy tags dies.
Card Recipe:
ODBD stamps: Ornaments 2
dies: Spellbinders Heirloom Ornaments, Holly Accents, Fancy Tags, Petite Ovals
Accessories: gold embossing powder, Ivory Cardstock, lace, pearl trim, gold bauble bells, gold baubles, May Arts Burgundy Wrinkled Ribbon
