Hi! I’m Sara Levin the artful inker. Welcome to my blog! Well, I’ve done it. Today, I created my first Christmas card for 2019. This Christmas Gleaming for TGIFC225 card uses a set from the upcoming Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog and some non traditional colors for a Christmas card.

For the TGIFC225 challenge,
we had to create on black.
Try it! It’s a fun jumping off point.
Christmas Gleaming for TGIFC225

It’s like Basic Black and Seaside Spray were made for each other!
They are such an elegant color combination.
And, work perfectly for this Christmas card.

Start with a Basic Black card base.
Then add a layer of Seaside Spray.
And over that, add Basic Black that has been cut with the
Stitched Lace Die.
It makes a pretty little peek a boo.

Next cut layers of ovals from
Silver Foil, Seaside Spray and Silver Glimmer Paper.
Top them with Christmas Gleaming ornaments
cut with the coordinating Ornament Punch Pack.
These will be available beginning September 4.
Or choose them now as part of your kit
when you JOIN MY TEAM.

Finish with some Seaside Spray Metallic Ribbon
from the Holiday Catalog.
And accent with Rhinestones.

Such a stunning card, Sara!!! I love the Seaside Spray against the black background! Thanks for playing along with this week’s TGIF Challenge! 🙂
Thanks, Tammy! It was a fun challenge.
This card is so elegant, and could easily translate to other occasions! Great job!
Thanks, Louise! I agree — it wouldn’t take much to change the occasion. Always nice to have a layout that easily changes up!
Sara, this is absolutely stunning! Love it! xxx
Thank you so much, Cheryll! So glad you enjoyed this non-traditional Christmas card.
