Day 4 One layer card

One layer , easy to mail and easy to mass-produced.
If you are worried about the extra mailing charge because of the jutted embellishments, today's project is just for you.
First one, I want to show off the beautiful Christmas flourish sentiment stamp. I stamp the Crystal wreath with white Cloud white on kraft card base and stamp the sentiment with Midnight black. Frame the edge with two way glue pen and sprinkle glitter.
Close up of the beautiful sentiment. With a beautiful sentiment stamp, it is easy to create clean and elegant card. Gives the card a great look. Did I mentioned this is my favorite? 

Second one I stamp the Crystal wreath three times with watermark ink and clear embossed. I use 1/8 "score type and line up on top and bottom of the card base. Sprinkle the glitter. I draw the white lines to high light the glitter part. Stamp the sentiment from Crystalline set with midnight black. 
Close up of the emboss part. Clear emboss on kraft is so clean and beautiful. Simple show the beauty of the wreath.
 

This one is so quick and easy. If you like to use pattern paper, this one can really show off the patterns. I trim the pattern paper and adhere on red card base. Stamp the sentiment with Midnight black. Add gems.
 
Close up of my favorite sentiment stamp again.

The next two are a card set. I use the same stamps in different color tune. With the same design by changes the color tune can give the card a whole new look.
First one I stamp the letter background with watermark ink and stamp the Winter Bough with Rocket red gold on Grey cardsotck. Mat on card base. Stamp the sentiment with Midnight black. Add Fire brick Stickles here and there.

Ink the edge with Antique and Tea dye Distress ink. Stamp the sentiment on trimmed whit cardstock with Midnight black. Ink the edge as well and adhere on card front. Add Gloden rod Stickles here and there.
