More Christmas Cards

Ok so yes, I know it's now the 6th January and we are all taking our decorations down, but I inadvertently got so excited I gave these Christmas cards to the recipients without taking pictures of them. So I had to get my brother to take pictures of his and I took a picture of Mum's at hers when I visited for New Years. So excuse the fact they aren't the best pictures ever but I still wanted to show you them

My brother's one is below. I cut 4 pieces of black card and 4 pieces of music themed paper and rounded 2 of the corners on each piece.

I used my Stampin Up festive flurry stamp and die set again and got the gilding flakes out again as I love them so much.

I cut out a snowflake from gold card to go behind the gilded snowflake to make the image pop. I also stamped and gilded the sentiment too, which actually worked and it came out clear so it can still be read. Here is a picture of the sparkle in the flakes

The card below was for my Mum - again with the gilding flakes and Indigo Blu Baroque Christmas tree stamp.

I wasn't too sure how to cut this out so I opted for a triangle and mounted it onto some turquoise mirror card. I didn't want to add too much more decoration that would take away from the main tree so I just added a stain ribbon and a small heat embossed sentiment. I wasn't too sure about it but Mum loved it and that's what counts
