Welcome
This is the first Christmas card I have made this year and I will be teaching it at my class this week

The red background was embossed with a spellbinders folder

The sentiment is from a Unity Stamps set Love, joy, Peace (now retired). I masked off the final line of the sentiment as 'happy holidays' is not used as a Christmas greeting in New Zealand.

The tree image from the same set was stamped in Gold Delicata ink - here you can see the sheen it gives, Both the image and sentiment were layered on dark green card before being mounted on the red.

A gold edged ribbon and bow were attached,

and I randomly applied gold kindy glitz to some of the embossing on the red panel.

Red and gold are so beautiful together, A great Christmas card, embossed with the gold bits, the delicate bow and super layout. Thank you for posting your beautiful art with us this week during our 153rd challenge at Word Art Wednesday. Carole Robb Bisson
Beautiful card Maxine! I LOVE all that gold embossing on here. The red and gold and that cute tree are just perfect.

Wow Maxine. I'd be panicking if I was only just making my first Christmas card of the year. But this is great. I love the sentiment panel. I won't use Happy Holidays either. Have fun sharing it at your class. Kate x

Pretty Christmas card! As others have commented before me...I really like the gold Christmas tree. You stamped it very nicely...at first I thought you had embossed it with Gold embossing powder.
PS. I want to come to your class too...but I hate to go on a plane...smile.
Beautiful. Thanks for playing in our challenge!
