Digital Stamps - Christmas BellsCompleted by Jean Pennington

cup271196_66Christmas bells

There are two cards on this design, and both are lovely when completed. To make this one I took it into my drawing program and made two copies of it. I covered the bells, bows and holly on one copy with a circle filled with white to hide that part of the design, and printed the rest on a laser printer in black and foiled it using gold foil. I selected a green fill for the second copy, then coloured the holly berries red. On that copy I deleted the outer frame and circle. I returned the printed foiled copy to the printer to print the inside of the design.

The bells, ribbon and holly leaves were coloured using fine liner pens. I attached the finished design to a 6 inch readymade square pearl card. The sentiment was printed on pearl card and embossed using embossing powder and a heat gun.
