Silver Bells
>> Friday, April 3, 2020
Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! And I hope you've been able to stay well. We've had some really insanely high pollen counts here. Like over 9000! And I've definitely been feeling that. Since it's the beginning of April, I needed a Christmas card for the Splitcoast Fan Club Christmas Challenge.
For my card, I silver embossed the pine bough image across the brushed silver paper then die cut it and a dk gray/sparkle paper. The greeting was also silver embossed on a smaller piece of the dk gray.

The bells image was colored w/ Copics & pretty much all of the cool gray Prismacolor pencils then fussy cut. I kept the greenery on the gray side of green so it wouldn't stand out so much. I may be a little biased, but I really like how the bells turned out.
Here are the Copics I used:
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend and stay safe!

Gorgeous card, Julie. The silver embossed branches make such a classy background! Gonna have to case this one, though I know I won’t be able to color those bells to perfection like you did! Beautiful!
This is such a beautiful and elegant card Julie! Your coloring on those bells is outstanding - I can practically hear them ringing :)
So gorgeous Julie!! I just love those bells and you always color everything so beautifully!!
The silver embossing, along with your incredible coloring of the bells, makes this a real stunner! Just gorgeous Julie!
Julie, this is soooo pretty! Wonderful way to use the images and make a dreamy Christmas card. I am going to have to try something like this. I love it! Hugz
