Hello everyone! Asia King here. Today I am sharing a quick and easy Christmas card, perfect for those last minute seasonal makes.
I created my background by applying onto white card strips of Crafty Power Tape covered in glitters, alternating the colours as I went. To tone down the ‘sparkliness’ I cut an overlay from white vellum, 1/16 inch smaller on each side than the background. Next I die cut a big snowflake in the centre of the vellum panel and embossed the sheet with a snowflake embossing folder. I secured the vellum with Adhesive Dots Medium.
To layer my cardstock mats and the sparkly background I used E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Before adhering the background I added a couple of Creative Photo Corners White.
I decorated the vellum die cut with a 3D Foam Snowflake covered in glitter and a glittered brad. I adhered the whole element over the die cut negative with Adhesive Dots 3D. To show the sparkly background behind it, I turned the snowflake 45 degrees so the arms didn’t overlap the die cut space.
For the sentiment panel I stamped the quote on vellum and layered it over cardstock with Adhesive Sheets 4×6″. I popped it over 3D Foam Squares Regular White.
To finish the card I added some lace, twine and sequins adhered with Adhesive Sheets 4×6″.

Crafty Power Tape, 3D Foam Squares Regular White, Adhesive Sheets 4×6″, E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser, Adhesive Dots Medium, Adhesive Dots 3D, Creative Photo Corners – White, 3D Foam Snowflakes
