When I learned that the Paper Players challenge was a “metallics/foil” theme, I grabbed my new Pine Tree Punch and a Gold Foil Sheet, and voila!

Gold Foil Christmas
There are lines of gold running through some of the Wrapped In Plaid 6X6 Designer Paper, so it was a perfect choice to combine with my Gold Foil pine tree.
I used a Stitched Rectangle Die for cutting, and glued it to Whisper White Cardstock that was embossed with the Eyelet Lace embossing folder. Even though this is a “clean & simple” challenge, I embossed. I can’t help myself! The card base is Thick Whisper White.
There’s more Gold Foil for the sentiment, cutting “Merry,” with a die from the Merry Christmas die set. To complete the sentiment, I stamped “Christmas,” from the Merry Christmas To All stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on Whisper White Cardstock. It fit nicely within the smallest Stitched Rectangle die-cut.
A few, shiny, gold sequins, completed my project. Thanks so much for checking out my Christmas card. You can see today’s supplies in my Product List below.
