Red and Gold Circle Shaped Card

Our challenge over at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday this week is to make a circle shaped card.
We've got TWO great sponsors for the month of October - Anne's Digital Art AND 2 Cute Ink.  

I made a Christmas card with an image from Lily of the Valley. I colored it with Promarkers, added glitter glue to the ground and liquid pearls to the flower. 
The scalloped circles are cut out of gold metal plates, and I decorated the upper one with gold bling. I used Fran-tage on the cream circle and gold embossing powder on the kraft card base. 
The die cut hollies are made with my new MB dies. I used kraft paper, added Fran-tage to make it look like they've got snow on them.



This card is also for these challenges:
1) Creative Card Crew - #48 Teddy Bears
2) Jingle Belles - not a CREATURE was Stirring..
3) My Heart Pieces Digital Stamps Challenge - Anything Christmas
4) Make it Monday - Anything Goes

Frantage? I must have it!!! This is such a fab card, Pia. I love the shape - must admit I don't do enough of it, always going for the safe (i.e. boring) option of square / rectangle. The gold embossing and holy die-cut certainly give the card a luxurious look.

Pia, Just took a look at all your wonderful cards and you have been doing gorgeous cards and love all the wonderful themes. I'm so behind on my comments it is unreal how having pneumonia can take the life out of a person and I'm so glad I'm finally getting over this. Your circle card turned out fantastic and I love the little teddy. The gold edges with the gold leaves really adds a nice touch. Take care my friend.
Hugs, Pat

Gorgeous card and lovely LOTV stamp...they are so cute. Your frantage is awesome, I am still practicing using it, it either burns my paper underneath or blows it away on top...xx
