I bought this ribbon on sale at Michael’s and wanted to think of a way to use it. To make the stamping on this card easier. I cut two extra wood blocks (I’m handy with my jigsaw and I just use scrap pine boards) so I could divide these two stamp images into four separate stamps. To do this I carefully cut away the cluster of poinsettia berries on the rubber image so that I could mount the poinsettia flower petals separate from the berries. I also separately mounted “Christ is born” from the bible verse.
The ribbon has some gold metallic threads in it so I decided to use some gold metallic confetti (from the party store) for the berries in center of the poinsettia. The ribbon best matched some Close To My Heart ink and paper I had. The color is called Vineyard Berry.
IÂ’m way behind in making my Christmas cards so I am pleased I found a way to make a classy card without too much work. This is another Nan original! Enjoy!
