Hello and welcome to the Metallics Blog op where we are sharing, surprize, surprize – projects made using Metallics. I have made a metallic holly leave card to share today.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the metallic holly leaves card, you will need:
Soft Sea Foam card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Vellum – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White, Silver Foil, Gold Foil & Copper Foil
Using the Fern 3D Embossing Folder, I embossed the piece of Vellum and adhered it to the Soft Sea Foam card base using Seal +, one strip in the centre of the card base where it would be hidden.
I die cut the label from the scrap Basic White card.
The sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink onto the die cut label, covered with Copper Embossing Powder and heat set using my Heat Tool.
From Silver Foil card, I die cut the backing piece to put behind the holly leaves on the label. The label was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.
Using the Holly Berry Dies again, I die cut a large detailed holly leaf from Copper Foil and the smaller holly leaf form the Gold Foil and tucked them under the label, using Mini Glue Dots to hold them in place.
I added a scattering of Brushed Metallic Dots and Festive Pearls to complete the card.
Please hop on to share the metallic inspiration provided by my crafty friends.
