Christmas cards featuring used card fronts with embossing, faux stitching, brads and some texture


 Another batch of cards featuring used card front from my stash of cards donated for cardmaking. 

First card, a trimmed card front which I  manually embossed with wood grain texture to frame the central wreath image.  Used a corner round on the corners before mounting to a dark green card.  Second card, a trimmed card front to which I added a star brad to the large star element, a ribbon with three small gold brads between the star and the greeting and some faux stitching around the edge using a gold gel pen.  


 Third card, a trimmed card front to which I added a short length of embossed foil ribbon between the Christmas stocking and the greeting.  
Fourth card, simply trimmed the card front and mounted it to a coordinating dark red card front. 
Fifth card, a trimmed card front to which I added four wavy lines of paper piercing using my pattern tracing wheel. I then mounted this element to a red layer and added it to a green card front which I had embellished with a strip of navy cardstock.           Therese
