A Royal Christmas by Julie Lavalette

Hello everyone and a warm welcome to our new followers. It's Julie here hosting the blog today. I have made another Christmas card to showcase the beautiful Snowflake Doily die from our new release. This die blends itself to Christmas and any other occasion depending on what shade of paper you choose. I decided to give it a regal theme so stuck mainly to reds and golds in my card.

I cut my doily out in gold card and offset the angel wing behind in red card stock and added some diamantés around the circumference and mounted my poinsettia flower on the top with a dazzle in the centre.

You will see I cut out my Lattice Valance die in red card and I love the way it frames my card. I also paper pieced in some gold card behind my die cut which helps to make it pop.

I extended my Horizon stacker die, paper piecing behind my doily, you will also notice I used part of the Lattice Valance die across the centre band, adding a Greetings message and stickles around my card to finish.

Well I hope you have enjoyed looking at my card and Good luck to everyone entering our weekly challenge and remember you could win $20 to spend here at Cheery Lynn. Next Saturday I will show you all how to make your Snowflake Doily into a square frame.
