QVC new releases....

Well I said to check back today to see what I have been playing with, so here's the full card, I am going to do each one separately, so you can see them in all their glory!
Here's card 1
This is fab!
I love this card!
The stamp is one of Pilkington Lanes Christmas scenes form last year, stamped in Tim Holtz Black Soot distress ink. But what makes this card stand out from the crowd is the Acetate!
The Acetate is one of the new products being released on Wednesday on QVC between 1-4pm by My Craft Studio! Its a very heavy acetate, scores well and holds it's shape excellently. It's beautifully pre-embossed with flourishes, this one's in Silver/white, depends on the light really.
A small gutted piece of this has been placed onto the Black card, and the stamped image matted on top of it. It makes the stamped image stand out, and Black and White Christmas cards can be very hard to do, and really gives it the touch of Luxury.
I mounted it onto a plain white card base, and used a Letraset Fine liner to create a small frame around the edge of the card and the stamped image. The black gems are positioned over the glue points holding the acetate in place.

Hope you like it, I must admit, its one of those products that I want to make the most of, and not waste a single snippet of, as it really is Luxurious!

Hugs, and don't forget to check back in a couple of hours to see the next one!
