Red Christmas Star

by Julie Warner - The Write Stuff

 Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! How can it be November all ready? I guess the theme this week is "be careful what you wish for", lol. Last week I mentioned how dry it's been around here. Say no more..we've been inundated w/ rain since then. I mean literally buckets of the stuff. It appears not one, but two tropical storm remnants from the Gulf somehow drew a bead on us & the skies opened up. The barely trickling creek behind us is now full & looks like white water rapids. 

My card is pretty simple & quick. I noticed that I had a star die that framed this lacy star image perfectly. So I die cut the star out of the red & heat embossed the star image onto the white behind it. I used some red ink & a red tinsel embossing powder. So sparkly!  You can see it a bit better in the pic below. I embossed just part of the curl from the snowflake scroll w/ sparkly silver powder as well as the greeting. 
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

Supplies:
paper:  Staples 110# white, red
ink:  Brilliance rocket red, Encore ultimate metallic silver
accesories: Rubbernecker Rectangle Stitch dies red tinsel & silver tinsel embossing powders,   ODBD sparkling stars dies, velveteen bow

I love the simplicity of this beautiful card Julie! My favorite part is that you turned the top of the snowflake scroll into the PERFECT ornament hanger - Genius!!!

Wow - some great stamping, Julie. Brilliant way to "hang" the ornament, the bow is beautiful, and I love the star treatment. I didn't even remember we had that star image and I want it! GREAT card. Hugz

Stunning embossing on your card and I love the clever swirl as an ornament hanger! That bow is perfection too!
