Tall Christmas Cards with Donna

Oct 8, 2021 | Donna Triffitt

Hi all, today is my turn on the blog and I have to say I have really enjoyed using the new Alcohol Inks with acetate for these three cards. So much fun.

Card 1. I stamped the Poinsettia stamp on to a piece of acetate with the wonderful black outline ink pad and heat set it gently. Using the gorgeous Golden Age & Pearl Alcohol Inks on Synthetic paper, I cut it down to fit on my card base. I then die cut a frame and placed it on top of the acetate sheet. I placed foam tape underneath the acetate where the frame is positioned and also the middle of the flowers. Glamorous Gold adhesive Pearls in the middle of the flowers to cover the foam tape and the card was finished..

Card 2. I love the CO728537 Santas Sleigh Tall Card Die Set and thought it perfect for the Golden Age Alcohol Inks on Synthetic Paper. I added Mirror Foil Board underneath the die cut frame as shown. I die cut Santa’s Sleigh twice from red and gold card stock and using foam tape adhered it to the front of the acetate. A star from the same die set and a stamped greeting on Mirror Foil Board and the card was done. I love this card…
This card was so much fun.. I stamped the Seasons Greeting straight on to the acetate and coloured it in with the brilliant COAPC2 Twin Tip Alcohol Ink Markers . I added a frame to the acetate and using foam tape adhered it to an alcohol ink background with two die cut Holly Sprigs between them. I placed this on an embossed mat then on to my base card.
