Season's Greetings in Glimmer


I had to share this card i did with the new Christmas Glimmer plates and foils that Becca created for Spellbinders.  It is called Christmas Damask Jubilee and the designs in it are just so gorgeous.  I knew i had to keep it simple so when i heated it on the glimmer machine in gold on the red metallic paper it really did it justice.  It turned out better than i imagined.  

And since that was my focal point I wanted to make a simple back round to place it on so i used another set of glimmer plates called the Gilded Nested Rectangles that are just frames and i made 2 layers in ivory to go under the red piece.  And then it just needed a sentiment so i used one of the sentiment die cuts to create that in gold metallic paper and used the bright red glimmer foil to compliment the layer under it.  It's very sophisticated and would make an even better front of an invitation for a party.  But this one is going to someone really special this year and i know they will really like it!

The last thing i added was a really thin bow in red satin and on top of that i added gorgeous buttons that i found at Joann's.  It's fun to shop around for that special piece that will really make your card stand out and i think this really added the perfect touch.



Thank you for stopping by today and be sure and check out all the other holiday glimmer plates that Becca has so that you can try them.  They are really fun and so easy to use....

Have a wonderful day,  Teresa
