Hello! I'm back today to share this card featuring a new BetterPress Letterpress plate by Spellbinders called Poinsettia Corner Press Plate & Die Set. I love how this turned out, and it was so easy that this might be the card design I mass produce for Christmas cards to send to family and close friends!
Following the directions for the BetterPress Letterpress System, I inked the Poinsettia Corner Press Plate with Hydrangea BetterPress ink. I pressed the image onto a piece of Porcelain cotton card. I inked the press plate again, but this time rotated the Platen before I ran it through my Platinum die cutting machine.
I trimmed the image to 3-¾" x 5" and adhered it to an A2 piece of brushed silver cardstock.
Next I inked up the sentiment included in the Poinsettia Corner set with black BetterPress ink and pressed it onto a scrap piece of Porcelain cotton card. I cut it out with the included coordinating die.
I die cut an oval from more brushed silver cardstock and added foam tape to the back to adhere it. Then I added some thin foam tape to the back of the sentiment for just a bit more dimension.
A few silver metallic pearls adds just a bit more shine to my card.
And that's it! For such minimal effort, I really feel this is a gorgeous card! Thank you so very much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful and crafty day!
