A Charming Christmas Inspiration | Embossed Christmas Card with Elena Salo

Hi dear friends! Elena Salo is here again with another portion of inspiration. I'm honored to play with A Charming Christmas collection by my favorite designer Becca Feeken. I adore every single die from her collections and this time I was so really shocked with the beauty that every set shows. So here is my first project featuring A Charming Christmas collection.

To create this card first of all I dry embossed 5x5” piece of brown cardstock using Bough Frame from Charming Christmas Boughs set of dies. Then I adhered it onto the gold cardstock panel that is slightly larger than the brown embossed square. I adhered the panel onto the card base.

I die cut the beautiful frame from Sentimental Christmas out of white and gold cardstock, stack two pieces together on the back of the frame with double-sided adhesive, stamped the sentiment and foam mounted the frame onto the card.

I can confidently tell you that the poinsettia from this release is all-time best! It’s got really perfect shapes. I ‘m sure I’ll use this flower very often in my Christmas projects. So, I created the flower using Cinch and Go Poinsettia set of dies. I die-cut the largest petals one more time to create leaves.

To finish the card I added some jewels on the frame and background.
