Mixed Media Christmas Card Printable for Word Art Wednesday

card 1

Happy Wednesday to you from a very happy me!  During the month of December I will be a guest designer at Word Art Wednesday.  This week's free printable Scripture was a pleasure to work with.

December 2

I printed the verse to align in the bottom corner of my card panel.  I distressed the edges of the panel, then dipped it in Chipped Sapphire, Frayed Burlap, and Weathered Wood Distress Inks.

Next, I embossed this gorgeous Stampendous nativity silhouette in gold onto a die cut watercolor panel.  I dipped it in the same inks, only less watery.  I layered over a scrolly Penny Black die and some purchased glittered snowflakes.  My final embellishment was a Tim Holtz snowflake rosette.  I stamped some small snowflakes in gold onto a navy card base to add a little more gold.

Well done on the GDT spot Autumn and what a super card you have made for them, the touches of gold go so well with the blues and the folded embellishment really draws the eye to the scripture.
