This week I made another card inspired by our Scandinavian Christmas photo at Jingle Belles.
This time i wanted to incorporate the aged metal together with the heart shape into my design.
I started by embossing silver metallic cardstock & then rubbing on Black Soot Distress ink to age it. Next I added a scrap of embossed specialty paper in the center to bring in the fabric feel of the design.
The heart was die cut from Basic Grey's Nordic Holiday paper and attached by stacking several layers of foam tape, so I could shape the heart to look like a pillow. I finished with a felt snowflake for texture, an Aspen Frost flair button & Get Merry! Hero Arts Sentiment.
Since the Aspen Frost Flair Button was a new Christmas gift to me, I'm linking-up at the Something New Challenge at the BasicGrey Challenge Blog.
Remember, you have until Wednesday, Janaury 30th at 6pm EST to link-up your inspired cards.
Another great card, Steph! I like that you ink-distressed the metallic cardstock - it looks great!
