Metallic holly bough


Embossing folder background, die-cuts, art metal foil, stamping and heat embossing

I do like this holly triptych die, have used it here with some art metal foil (sentiment by Uniko).

Playing at five challenges:
Allsorts Challenge - CAS Christmas
CAS Mix Up - Embossing folder + Stamping + Your choice
Less Is More - Metallics
Uniko - Celebrate with optional twist of gold

Such a elegant and beautiful card. The foiling looks fabulous on that pretty die cut holly and stunning against the texture of the embossing folder, which looks like falling snow. Thank you for adding this amazing card to the gallery at The CAS Mix Up Challenge. Wonderfully CAS and including all the mixed media elements x.

This triptych holly die is really beautiful and I had to go and buy one after seeing one of your earlier cards using it. :) Love it with the embossed texture background and covered with the gorgeous gilding flakes. Beautiful, Sue! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up! xx

What a delicate and beautiful foil holly, Sue! The metallic-look is a great contrast to the dry-embossed soft falling snow in the background.
