Black and Silver...

Happy Wednesday,

S simple stamped card today again mixing Die cutting and stamping to make the card.


I stared by cutting, with the press cut stitch dot squares, a square of black card.  Next I stamped the floral circle form my clear stamp set using sink silver pigment ink.  I then stamped the sentiment, from the winter trees set, in the centre again using silver.


Next I matted and layered this onto silver mirror card and more black card.

I then cut the holly die from the Find It media florals set (PM10103) click code fro link.  I used silver mirror card and folded the holly along the centre lines before adding as a spray, with the berries that cut at the same time, at the edge of the wreath.




I added a layer of snowflake card form an old Die Cuts with a View (DCWV) Christmas paper stack.  I added layers of silver and black and a strip of silver sparkle ribbon from my stash.



Enjoy...

    Eh up John
    Another elegant and classy "John" card. Great use of the wreath stamp as you would think it's holly.
    Beautiful!
