I’m sneaking in just under the wire today with More Christmas In July Hand Made Cards.  Glimmer foiling a huge sentiment like these Copperplate Holiday Sentiment plates is the perfect way to quickly create the main element for your card.  Add a easy embossed background and embellish with a few die cuts, and viola, you have a stunning finished card.

More Christmas in July Hand Made Cards – Copperplate Holiday Sentiments – Warm Wishes Card #1

Start by placing the 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ Waterfall card stock into the Pinecones and Berries embossing folder and emboss.  Attach it to a top folding A2 sized white card base.  4-1/4″ x 11″, score and fold at 5-1/2.  Splatter with white paint and set aside to dry.

Next, foil the Warm Wishes Copperplate Holiday Sentiments BetterPress Plate with the Polished Brass Glimmer Foil onto a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ panel of Hammermill White cardstock.

Then, cut the sentiment out with the Essential Arches dies, and use foam squares to attach it to the card front.

Create the embellishments with the Joyful Holly Glimmer Plate and Die Set and the coordinating stencil from the July 2024 Club Kits.  Use the coordinating dies to cut out the holly, snip the one stem off and then use foam squares to attach at the top and bottom of the card

Finally, embellish with the Teal Color Essential Gems.

More Christmas in July Hand Made Cards – Copperplate Holiday Sentiments – Warm Wishes Card #2

Note, all the cards are the same A2 size, the next two have been turned to horizontal, so the measurement for the card bases is 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, score and fold at 4-1/4″.

Start with the 4-1/4″ x 5-12″ mint cardstock, mist it with water on both sides before placing inside the Hexi Snowflake embossing folder and embossing.  Once the panel is dry, splatter with white paint and attach to the front of the card.

Next, foil the Merry Christmas Copperplate Press Plate with Polished Brass Foil on a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ panel of Hammermill white and then cut out with the Fresh Picked Labels and Tags dies.  Attach this panel to the card front with foam squares to pop it up and add dimension to the card.

Then, using the Skating Into the Holidays Die Set, die cut two double poinsettia from Waterfall cardstock and ink them with Broken China ink to add some depth.  Cut the remaining foliage from Mint and Blue Spruce cardstock.

Finally, use Crystal Mix Gems for the flower centers and Teal Color Essential Gems around the sentiment.
