I really love the new Whirl Bay Leaves die from Simon's Diecember release. Leaves/branches are some of my favorite types of dies and I love the texture in the leaves themselves.
For today's card, I die cut several of the leaves from cream cardstock. I wanted to add a little bit of shimmer to them, so I watercolored them with the Champagne Gold watercolor pan from my Starry Colors watercolor set. It's hard to see in the photos, but it adds a little extra glitz to the card.
Once these were dry, they were adhered to a panel of cream cardstock to create an allover pattern. This was then adhered directly to a kraft base.
The Fancy Peace sentiment was die cut from Champagne Matte cardstock and adhered to a shadow piece cut from cream. The completed sentiment was popped up with foam tape.
Another Christmas card for my dwindling pile....I've finally entered the part of the year where I send more cards than I make!
