    INSTRUCTIONS:

    Trim a sheet of red mirror card down to just under 8x8” and affix it to the base card. Die-cut the first and second die from the Holly Frames die set in Crystal White pearl card and go around the four sides of each die-cut piece using Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter. Matt and layer red mirror card and patterned paper from the Elegant Christmas foiled pad onto the largest die-cut, going around the four sides of the patterned paper panel with Chunky Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter. Attach to the base card with foam pads, then decorate the holly leaves with jewels from the Festive Fancies Bling Box.

    2 Attach red mirror card to the second Holly die-cut panel for the next layer. Trim white card down to fit, cover with an A4 double-sided sticky sheet, remove the top, and cover with Chunky Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter. Secure on top of the die-cut panel and attach to the main card with foam pads.

    3 Stamp, heat-emboss, and die-cut the Christmas Foliage Frame stamp and die set onto Crystal White pearl card using Festive Branches embossing powder. Decorate with jewels from the Festive Fancies Bling Box and Chilli Pepper and Sunset Boulevard Sparkelicious glitter, and attach to the main card with foam pads.

    4 Stamp, heat-emboss and die-cut the verse from the Christmas Foliage stamp and die set onto Crystal White pearl card using Metallic Gold embossing powder. Matt and layer onto a red mirror card die-cut panel and affix to the main card with foam pads. Finally, secure the bow to the top left-hand corner with Pinflair glue gel.
