Upcycled Christmas Card | #WFC Week 3

Hello! Thank you for visiting my blog. Today I am part of the Winter Fun Collab hop on You Tube. This is actually week three of the hop. Each week was a different project. Week One was Christmas Cards, Week Two was shaker cards.  This week is freestyle. This means anything goes. I created two cards out of one recycled card from last year.

Here are the two cards that I made:


 This is the card before :

I used a circle die to cut out the main image. I also cut out about 15 circles the same size. I glued them together and adhered the imagine on top. This created the dimension for the first card. 

 On the left is the first card - the one that features the bird perched on a pine branch. I used a Brutus Monroe background die called Flourish cut out of white glitter card stock.  I adhered the die to green card stock cut using permanent double-sided adhesive. I selected a sentiment from the Hero Arts Color Layering Christmas Tree stamp set and I heat embossed it using Brutus Monroe Alabaster Embossing Powder. I trimmed the sentiment and adhered it to the top of the card.
The second card is on the right. I used the layering Evergreen Trees from the Hero Arts Color Layering Christmas Trees stamp set. I used Versafine Claire ink in Rainforest and Verdant to stamp the trees onto white glitter stock. I then placed the recycled card on top of that. It matched well because the card has snow, glitter and evergreens. I used the same Merry Christmas sentiment that I used in my first card.
