It is hard to believe that Christmas is so close – I really need to plan my Christmas shopping.
This week’s Challenge at Holly Jolly is themed around the Christmas Tree.
So if you are creating and have a Christmas Tree on your card – please join us!!
I recently purchased the Craft Stamper Magazine and Chrissie Stokes created a lovely looking one layer card, so Chrissie’s card has has inspired my project for this weeks challenge.
I masked the bottom of the card and then stamped the En Francais stamped over to one side in Versamark. Then I sponged Bashful Blue and Perfect Plum over the embossing. The Christmas tree from the Snow Swirled stamp set was then stamped over the sponging in Perfect Plum.
I stamped 3 little stars on the tree in Bashful Blue and added some bling and ribbon. The sentiment is from the Peaceful Wishes stamp set.
Here is my card:
Supplies:
Stamp set: Peaceful Wishes, Snow Swirled, En Francais
Card: Whisper White
Ink: Perfect Plum, Bashful Blue, Versamark
Accessories: Clear Embossing Powder, Ribbon (retired), Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals
I think this might be the 2nd one layered card I have completed but I love the end result. What colours shall I play with next ? Lol.
I would like to add this card to the following challenges:
