An English Merry Christmas

The Card

I copied this card, created by Mikaela Titheridge, who lives in the United Kingdom.  Mikaela is on the 2019 Stampin’ Up! Artisan team.  I replicated her card, as close to exactly as I could.  I did so because I think it is an easy-to-make, yet beautiful, Christmas card that showcases the Christmastime Is Here Suite.  The card proudly displays the beautiful Merry Christmas font found in this stamp set.

I cut the foliage background from the Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP).  This particular spray is not one that has a die to cut it.  I must confess that I let my Scan ‘n’ Cut do the fussy cutting while I gold embossed the sentiment, die-cut it and, added the gold foil enhancements.  After adding a strip of DSP to the Whisper White panel and hiding the seam with gold glimmer ribbon, I glued the panel to the Early Espresso card base.  Finally, I added the “freshly cut foliage” (get it?) to the card using dimensionals and then added the enhanced Merry Christmas sentiment with more dimensionals.  A few gold glitter enamel dots finish the card front.

The Inside

I like to finish the inside of a card to coordinate with the card front. Below is how I finished this card on the inside.  I think it is self-explanatory.
