I die-cut the ornaments using the matching die and then used a silver metallic pen to add some details on the ornaments, and to add the silver "cording" for the ornaments to hang (a bit hard to see in the photo). Also added a silver heat embossed sentiment from merry up (30-622).
The bottom ornament was glued directly onto my card front, the other two are popped up on foam for added dimension. Then the whole panel was popped up onto a card base.

Next up is the trendy trimmings stamp set (30-628). I used three of the five images to create some fun, square note cards. Stamped in black and heat embossed in clear, the images were watercoloured using zigs. I cut them into 2 1/2" squares and added a faux stitching around the edge using a red marker. The panels are popped up on foam for extra dimension before adhering to the bright greet card base. A little bit of shimmer paint was added on to the images, but wasn't able to capture in the photo. :)
I hope you've enjoyed seeing some fun and easy cards using these wonderful images.

Fun and fantastic cards -- and your ornaments sure are ornate and beautiful!
Fabulous collection of cards, Loll! Your little note cards are lovely...so bright, fun and creative! I really LOVE your ornaments! I'm so impressed that you were successful at heat embossing on Yupo, and your silver details are perfect! Beautiful alcohol inking, too...I'll bet they look amazing IRL!
This card is so beautiful, Loll. I love the high contrast between the white panel of the card and the wonderful, intense colors of the baubles. The cards in green are so joyful :-)

As usual, I love the examples using alcohol ink and dies, along with the other various cards you make. I draw inspiration all the time. As a matter of fact, I chose to do some alcohol and Yupo cards like yours..., using my dies, cutting slices from a triangle, and adding a die, and they are gorgeous. Making these particular type this year, allows me time to,work on my bigger cards, using alcohol ink on mica pieces, I find along the road. Thanks so much,Loll
