Hi And good morning
looks like we are going to have another lovely day today
last night i cut out loads of TH large tags with my die
ready to stamp on and decorate and decided to spritz some
copy paper for backgrounds at the same time ready for stamping on
as i was doing that i decided to make a Christmas card using
one my own papers and TH paper rosette die
I always use 160gsm photocopy paper for using shimmer
sprays as it don't curl up or wrinkle I ended up with this.

The paper was spritz with Blue blitz shimmer spritz
I used a Kanban Christmas stamp and stamped all over
in versafine smokey grey ink i cut out my background and
 matted onto silver mirror card, I also used a EK Success punch
 for the border in the centre I used my TH paper rosette die which
 i haven't used for a long time and cut out two paper rosettes
using the same paper and cut out a few circles with mirror card
matted the rosette's onto them
cut out a smaller circle and added a creative expressions
Christmas quote and added it in the centre of the rosette's.
