Day 3 card

I really love that half circle with self-adhisive pearls ❤

A bit of process:

I stamped the Pine Branch using Peeled Paint Distress Oxide ink. This ink stamps perfectly leaving wet impression that you can use in your favor - like heat embossing for example. So i heat embossed the stamped images with clear fine powder by Ranger. You can leave them as they are or add a bit of ink on both side to make them darker.

Cut the circle with any circle die.

Being a big fan of solid ribbons and bows I couldn't leave this card without them :) 

For the sentiment I used From our house stamp and heat embossed it in white. It looks very striking against burgundy background. And the card is complete. All is left to do - to add some pearls.

I used:
