Hi everyone. :)   Adriana back again here on the blog today and I have created two cards using the new release  
Let Everyday Be Christmas
Artdeco Creations - Couture Creations 
Ask for it at your local scrapbooking store!!!! This collection is designed by Tina Higgins - a well known talented artist. I just love her vintage style and this Christmas collection is so pretty.

In this collection there are 12x12 paper pads and A4 paper pads, stunning Christmas dies and also a fabulous hot foil stamps that can be used together 
with the GoPress and Foil Machine by Couture Creations,  I am having a ball playing with this machine!!!!

For my cards today I created mostly with the following hotfoil stamps and dies from the
Couture Creations  Let Everyday Be Christmas  Collection. 
in particularly the  Let Everyday Be Christmas  Christmas Snowflakes hotfoil stamps CO725528
Let Everyday Be Christmas  Merry Christmas hotfoil stamp CO725529
together with the Go Press and Foil machine
and also   
Let Everyday Be Christmas Mini Snowflakes decorative die CO725521
Let Everyday Be Christmas Merry Christmas die CO725509



"Christmas Snowflake Cards" by Adriana Bolzon







 For my 1st card below, I used the 
Couture Creations  
Let Everyday Be Christmas  Christmas Snowflakes hotfoil stamps CO725528
with 
and Silver Foil mirror finish CO725350 FOIL to create a background of snowflakes and added some more die cuts of snowflakes with the
Couture Creations Silver Foil A4 card stock - CO725409 and
Let Everyday Be Christmas Mini Snowflakes decorative die CO725521

Let Everyday Be Christmas Merry Christmas die CO725509


 

Using the Go Press and Foil machine and the 
Let Everyday Be Christmas  Christmas Snowflakes hotfoil stamps CO725528 and
Couture Creations Silver Foil mirror finish CO725350 FOIL
I heat foiled the hot stamp many times, all over my white card stock.
I just love the finished look of the silver mirror foil on white!



After foiling the snowflakes I coloured the background with
some ink pad colour (Broken China), 
the silver foil and the cool blue colour look so awesome together.
Did you know that you can colour the background after you have foiled your card stock piece or you can do before you do the hot foiling, how cool is that !!!!

I created this card with a Square white card stock base

Couture Creations Silver Foil A4 card stock - CO725409

one of the music pages from the

Silver Foil mirror finish CO725350 FOIL & using the


With another piece of white card stock, I cut a piece of
Ultimate Crafts - DIE CUT AND BOND TAPE ULT157644 and place it onto 
the card stock, peeled the top layer away and
gently placed a piece of 
Silver Foil mirror finish CO725350 FOIL and

Using the Let Everyday Be Christmas Mini Snowflakes decorative die CO725521 I then cut several of the snowflakes with this piece of foiled card stock.

Next using the Go Press and foil machine &
Couture Creations Blue/Green Foil CO725392 I hot foiled the word Merry Christmas on to a strip of
Couture Creations Silver Foil A4 card stock - CO725409
then matted that with some White Glitter card stock.


Placing it all together on the bottom of the card, embellishments include seam binding ribbon and Crystal Gemstones.
