In keeping with my commitment to try & get as many Christmas cards done before the end of the year, I have another one layer. One layer makes for easy postage but I also think it forces a little creativity being so restricted.
With this card I used watercolour paper, stamped with Versamark and embossed in gold. I coloured the ornaments with Gansai Tambi watercolours using their gorgeous gold & silver. The silver actually comes out looking more like a pearly white which is so pretty. Next image is a little easier to see the gorgeous sheen. Background was coloured with same watercolours using freehand to create rectangle.
I finished with a Heidi Swapp stencil and Studio 490 gold embossing paste for the stars.
I am entering this in OneLayer Christmas Card Challenge # 3
