Card front with a pyramage of a lovely vintage image on digital lace. Great for Christmas occasions. Very easy and quick to make. This design is available in more colours; please click on 'multi' to see them or on my name to see my other designs.

The sheet was printed onto Super Smooth card and the layers cut out. I made a base card of a suitable size to leave a small border around the base layer from an A4 sheet of linen textured gold card. The base layer was stuck directly to this.
Being aware that people don't like having to put a Large Letter stamp to post Christmas cards I decided to keep the profile of the card shallow by not using the largest or smallest of the circular pyramid layers. I stuck the other layers on in turn using 1mm deep double sided foam tape. I used a Sakura clear starlight pen on the rays of the baby Jesus' halo and around the edge of the bells. I used a pearlescent glue to go around and put blobs on the outside of each loop of the lace background, and I used a gold glitter gel pen to write Nadolig Llawen (Welsh for Happy Christmas) on the blank greetings panel included before I stuck this to the card using glue gel.
A lovely design that reminds people that the birth of Christ is the reason for Christmas while still having extras like bells and bows to bring something special to the card.
