Christmas Card Throwdown July - Sketch Challenge

It's Christmas in July. Had some fun making a Christmas card for the current challenge at Christmas Card Throwdown





Here's my card



I used Hero Arts Stamp & Cut Ornament set for the three items of the card. I stamped using Versamark and WOW! Rose Gold embossing powder, which was heat set. Have you tried WOW! Rose Gold embossing powder - trust me, you need to. I love the colour - so pretty. I've always had difficulty lining up the dies with the stamped/heat embossed images. I saw a trick somewhere (can't remember where), to die cut a post-it note. Using the negative as a template, it helps me to align the die, as the die fits into the positive space of the post-it note. The sentiment is from the same stamp set. I used silver thread to "hang" the ornaments.
