Hi there and thank you for stopping by my blog today! Today I am sharing a card that I made for the Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge. I had made a couple of Christmas tags for another challenge a while back, and used one of them to make into a card for the anything goes challenge.
I found a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder for my background.
After embossing, I edged the piece with a green Copic and then swiped ink over the raised areas.
This was then layered to a piece of green cardstock, before being attached to the white card base. The sentiment was stamped with the same Olive Grove Memento ink, used for the background.
I tucked the tag in between the sentiment and the little layer of green cardstock before attaching both to the card front with mounting tape.

This is fabulous Shona, that bold and beautiful die cut looks wonderful against the embossed background.
