O Christmas Tree – The Project Share Blog Hop – September 2024

Hello and welcome to the September 2024 Project Share Project blog hop. Our fabulous little group of independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators share each others projects every Thursday and also create a new project for a monthly Blog Hop. This month, our theme is Embossing. I’ve created this O Christmas Tree card…

ABOUT MY CARD

My card was inspired Verity of www.InkyButterfly.com who is taking part in this hop too. Verity often stamps directly onto her card base and leaves a wide border of the stamping showing. She also likes to add a tiny border around her main panel. So that’s what I did with today’s card.

For the main panel, I featured 2 types of embossing. The white panel has been dry embossed with the brand new Painted Trees 3D embossing folder. The Christmas tree was stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed with clear powder. After I die cut it, I also ran it through my Cut & Emboss machine with the Painted Trees embossing folder. I love all the texture and shine…

I also added silver edged sheer ribbon and silver trim on top before I popped the tree up with dimensionals. The tree and sentiment are both from the Decorated Trees bundle.

The final touch was some lovely textured Faceted Gems.
