| Hopefully you can see the shimmer on the bauble |
I took a piece of card and blended Mowed Lawn distress ink all over it and then brushed on perfect pearls to create the faux metal effect. I embossed the panel and then cut out the baubles - the embossing is quite subtle as I should have cut the baubles before embossing but I had a senior moment and did it the wrong! The sentiment and the tops of the baubles were die cut from gold card. The finished card doesn't look quite right - I think it would have worked better without 'joy' but it's too late now.
I used:
Sizzix Holly Swirls Embossing Folder
Memory Box, Classic ornament die
Distress Ink - Mowed Lawn
Perfect Pearls - perfect pearls
Lawn Cuts Joy die
Embroidery thread.
Enjoy!
The shimmer on your embossed and die cut ornaments is fabulous, Elaine and gives the design a real touch of luxury - perfect for Christmas!
