Christmas Elegance 1Completed by Gail Pennycuick

I printed the design onto quality photo paper, cut the elements out and decoupaged them onto the base. I layered it onto green textured card and then gold paper. Onto a gold square base card I matted some patterned paper, then attached the ovals to the left-hand side of this.

To the right I added transparent peel-off stickers (baubles) on green and gold paper. Finally I added green faux diamonds around the main image. This is an unusual and striking image for a Christmas card.
