Step Up Christmas card with Adriana

 Hi everyone, Adriana here today with a very simple Centre Step up Christmas Card. Using The Gift of Giving Collection of papers and mini stamps to create the background of my card. With a touch of foiling with the GOPRESS and foil machine created with a Merry Christmas hot foil stamp from last years' collection.

For the background I stamped the Holly Silhouette Mini stamp CO727933 several times randomly around the edges of some card stock with Green Pigment ink.

Adding some fuzzing cut poinsettia's flowers from the the 12 x 12 paper  CO727901 and layering some of the petals on top of each other with foam dots.

 

Adding some Gold Gemstones in the centre of the flowers.

To create a centre step card just follow this template

Some of the lines are cut and some are scored or folded , it is very simple and easy to create.

Start off with a 6' X 12" card and score and fold as shown below..

Adding some die cut Holly Sprig mini die CO727918 with mirror board card stock, for an added touch of gold to finish off the card. Adding a foiled Merry Christmas with last year hot foil stamp = teamed up with the GO PRESS and Foil machine.

Thanks for stopping by, take care

Cheers Adriana XX
