X-mas icons

Good afternoon peeps, I’m going to show you another holiday set of mine, that I made after getting inspired by a similar one featured in an “Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft” magazine.
I’m very much into classic, rich Christmas colours: red, green and gold, and I enjoy every piece I create, that features them. Here’s my very Christmassy project:

This set took me more time that I expected, partly because it takes some time to do the embossing manually (I used Fiskars embossing plate and a stylus), and partly due to exceptionally high temperatures today, that left me pretty exhausted, and my little girl cranky :)

The cards were made to suit two challenges, one of them being “Getting Punchy With It” at Daring Cardmakers (which is to use punches of course), and the other one - “All That Sparkles” at Simon Says Stamp. The last one especially suited the idea behind these cards, to make the central elements twinkle. And oh boy, they do beautifully :)

Below are the photos of each card in detail:

The ornaments have been cut freehand from patterned paper and cardstock, and then glittered. The sentiments are, as usually, hand-written.
Hope you like them, thanks for stopping by!
