Merry Flowers - Avery Elle Christmas card

Hello and happy Monday!

Today I'm sharing an elegant Christmas card featuring the gorgeous Christmas Flowers stamps and coordinating dies.

Even when my usual style is cheery and cute, every year I love to create something more classic and elegant so when I saw this stamp set Í knew it would be perfect for that.

I started with a piece of patterned paper from the Neutral collection to add a nice but simple background to my card and then I used several Ditress inks to color a rectangular panel in red with an ombrè effect.


These flowers are perfect for coloring but I decided to stamp them with embossing ink and heat emboss them using white embossing powder. I used the same technique to stamp the sentiment on the red panel.
Finally, I put everything together, using liquid glue and dimensional adhesive and placed a grey stripe of paterned paper, also from the Neutral Collection, between the red stripe and the background.

As a little finishing touch, I added some sparkling to the flowers with my Wink of Stella pen and a bunch of adhesive pearls.


I hope you like my project for today and feel inspired to create some Christmas cards, if you are like me, it's never too soon to start! haha
Thank you so much for stopping by!! Have a nice day :)
