Festive Scene

I made this card for the Merry Monday 'Non-black Silhouette' challenge and followed the sketch at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown.  I'm also entering the ABC Christmas Challenge 'K for Keep it Simple', Happy Little Stampers Christmas Challenge 'Anything Goes and Happy Little Stampers - Anything Goes with Dies challenge.


Card blank: 5" x 5" white silk
Dies: Creative Dies ''Festive Scene', Spellbinders Nestabilities 'Standard Circles Large' and 'Classic Scalloped Circles Large'
Embossing: Kars tan embossing mat
Card: Gold pearlescent and white silk

I die cut the Festive Scene from white card and layered it onto a gold die cut circle.  I then die cut and embossed a scalloped white circle and a slightly larger scalloped gold circle.  The Festive Scene and scalloped circles were layered and attached to the centre of the card blank.  To finish I removed the snowflakes from the die cut waste and added them above the houses.
