Today I am featuring a bright, sparkly Christmas card using the newly released Spellbinders JOY Flourish Doily die set from the Christmas Flourish Collection. I have combined plain cardstock, glittered cardstock, and mirrored gold cardstock to give this card lots of pretty sparkle! As always all the products used will be listed at the end of this post.
I started with a 5.5 inch square white base card. I then added a mat of green cardstock slightly smaller so that it would leave a white border around the outside of the card. Next I found some pretty red and white stripped glitter paper in my stash that made a perfect background piece. It was cut slightly smaller than the green piece so that it had a green border around it.
Next, I cut the solid die cut piece from solid red and then the inside decorative piece from white glitter paper. It was then glued together as shown. The JOY was cut from both mirrored gold and green cardstock and layered to make it look as though it had a gold shadow. I then added some green holly leaves and red berries. The berries were placed on a mirrored gold outline piece and glued to the top of the motif.
I then cut four of the curls out of the mirror gold and placed one in each corner as shown and attached a red enamel drop from my stash to each one as shown.
I hope you like this card and that it inspires you to create some of your own. This is a beautiful collection and this particular die set is no exception.
