Coppery Christmas Card

BySue Madex August 22, 2018September 1, 2025

This week I had a few coppery products lying around so thought I’d assemble a card from leftovers. Love this coppery Christmas addition to my card stash.

Tips and Tricks: The copper foil piece is embossed with ‘Oh My Stars’ embossing folder. The leaves from Blended Seasons are embossed in white and coloured using the gorgeous shimmer paint coming up in the Holiday Catalogue. Remember that stamp set is only until the end of August then it’ll be gone for good.

I used my aquapainter to dip into the shimmer paint in the lids. LOVE shimmer paint. I daubed some onto the Merry stamp for the greeting. If you love copper we’ve got copper glimmer paper coming up soon in 6″ combo packs. The ‘Christmas’ is cut using the Merry Christmas To All bundle.

Happy stamping!

Cheers, Sue
