Stars for Days!

How have you been enjoying the first 7 days of Christmas cards! I can’t believe how fast the first week of November has gone by! I always find the last half of the year just zips on by with holidays and at our house a few birthdays too! This is one of my favourite cards. I made it back in September and I am so happy to share it here. It mixes two different blue tones—Seaside Spray and Balmy Blue—with Whisper White and silver accents. The Mercury Glass Designer Acetate paper is really the WOW of this card though!

Top Tip: the Mercury Glass paper has a protective layer on it that should be removed before you run it through the Big Shot machine. If you add some Scotch Tape to the paper it does help to get the protective layer free

I used the Subtles embossing folder to give the background some texture and then lightly sponged over it with Seaside Spray to pick up the texture. The sentiment comes from the Most Wonderful Time of Year product medley on page 39 of the Holiday Catalogue.
