HD Christmas Past - O Holy Night

Today I have 4 more cards from HD Christmas Past kit - these ones from the set called "O Holy Night".  These four cards bring my total so far from this kit to 30.  Most materials used are from the kit - focals, embellishments, greetings, and AS (adorable scoreable card stock).  Where I have used other materials or tools, that is noted below.

Card #1 (above):  This first card is made using a piece of AS behind the die cut pieces that form the focal.  This is matted on a fancy mat cut from gold metallic poster board using a die from Spellbinders' Resplendent Rectangles.  This, in turn, is matted on a piece of gold dotted red fiberous paper from my stash.  The sentiment was glued to a star die cut (die from 9 Tiny Christmas Things & Shadows - HOTP)

Card #2:

Here I used a piece of AS with a tannish scrap from the other AS to form a place for the die cut focal to sit.  The sentiment is from the HD Essential Book of Christmas Greetings (2016) and is matted on gold foiled card stock.

Card #3:

This card was very simple - focal glued to a piece of AS that was used for the background - with a small greeting added near the top.  You can't tell it, but the focal is actually a bit 3-D since I added layers to it using foam tape.

Card #4:

This slim line card was created using AS & a die cut.  I matted it on red, added a border with scraps from my stash, and finished it with a greeting from the kit.
