Blog Blitz Day 3 | by Jennifer Svare

Hello!  So glad you are joining the Blog Blitz today!  The prize that will be chosen randomly from comments left on today’s post is the very versatile Radiant Ornament Layer A.

The layers from the ornament set are full of stunning detail with endless possibilities; however, this Christmas card uses only the negative space from the die’s Layer A.

Any of the layers would work to create a negative space, but the Layer A also comes with the silver ornament cap which was cut from silver cardstock.  I love the embossed pattern it creates along with the cut.

The different die sets can work together in unique ways. The snowflake design inside the ornament comes from the center cuts layered from the Issa Snowflake Layer A and Layer C.  So many ways to use these dies.

Inside is the Merry Christmas die cut from the gorgeous Sugar Script words.  I love the simplicity and versatility of these gorgeous fonts.  There’s still plenty of room below to write a personal message.

Check out the video below for a quick tutorial of how I made this card, and don’t forget to leave a comment for your chance to win The Radiant Ornament Layer A!

    Fabulous card. The contrast of the glitter paper with the shiny paper really adds to the glam of the card. I also like the addition of the texture with the embossing folder. It is always fun to see different ways to use dies.

    Great use of “negative” space…will have to try that with my glitter cards! Like the background embossed piece and the bit of red, too!

    Another beautiful die! I use lots of snowflake designs on my cards. I guess since we don’t get much snow here, it is my way of enjoying it. You showed us how pretty it would be on cards so I would be thrilled to add it to my collection!
