Instructions:
- Take the largest Fancy Rectangle Die and cut into a 8x8 Card Blank to create your shaped card base. Using the same die, cut from a piece of Crystal White Pearl Card. Attach this to the base card using dries clear glue.
- Take the 2nd Fancy Rectangle Die and cut from a piece of fairaway pearl card, affix to the base using foam pads.
- Cut a rectangle using a guillotine from silver mirror card just small enough to fit inside the Fancy Rectangle shape previously cut. Cut another slightly smaller rectangle from Crystal White Pearl Card and affix to the card using dries clear glue
- Cut strips, from two sheets of patterned paper from the Festive Fancies foiled paper pad, to 3/4 of an inch by the width of the Crystal White rectangle. Affix the strips to the card using dries clear glue alternating each time and leaving a little gap in between. Add a couple of dots of dries clear glue into the background of one of the papers chosen and cover in Silver Crystal sparkelicious glitter. Also add a few dots of glue to the centre of the Poinsettias in the background and cover in Red Poinsettia Sparkelicious Glitter.
- Using your fine tip applicator on your glue, run round the edge of the Crystal White Pearl Card and cover in Silver Crystal sparkleicious glitter. Affix to the card using foam pads.
- Cut a wavy banner die from Crystal White Pearl Card. Using the sentiment stamps from the Holly Tag stamp, stamp out a sentiment onto the wavy banner and heat emboss using O’ Christmas Tree wow powder. Affix to the card using a double layer of foam pads.
- Using the Christmas Poinsettia Stamp Set, stamp two of the smallest flowers onto Jupiter Pearl Paper and heat emboss using crimson red wow powder. Die cut using the matching die. Using the second smallest flower stamp, stamp onto Fairway Pearl Paper and heat emboss using O’ Christmas Tree wow powder. Die cut using the matching die. Layer the three together using 3D glue gel and affix to the card using more 3D glue gel.
- Apply 3 red crystals from the Festive Fancies Bling Box to the centre fo the flower using dries clear glue.

Beautiful card. You can always bling this up if you wish to but it doesn’t need it.
