Christmas Card ~ Foil Ornaments (post #1)

When I saw this beautiful foil and kraft paper I put my self imposed paper buying time-out on hold.
It was on sale and I just knew it could be used to create some sort of Christmas project.
I knew I wanted to do some sort of card with ornaments on it and this paper worked perfectly.



*Card base 5.5 x 4.25 in.
*Card front 5.25 x 4 in. then I tore and sponged the edges.
*Circles created and cut using the Silhouette Portrait 2, 2.25 & 2.5 in. from the DCWV Foiled Elegance Stack 6x6 paper pad.
*Ornament tops cut out by hand.
*Ornament hooks made using floral wire.
*Sentiment stamped on the Scroll Die from Verve Stamps.
*Jim Holtz Tea Dye Distress Ink stamp pad

May your day always be filled with love.
Hugs,
D~

    So elegant! Perfectly acceptable reason to fall off the wagon on your paper buying ban!
