Merry Christmas

Hello! I am loving creating Christmas cards this year using Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps and already well on my way to finishing them up for this year. 

For this card, I used Vintage Ornaments, Christmas Sentiments and the foliage is from Season of Change.

This is my favorite color combination for Christmas cards and have a hard time creating without using Cranberry Tart especially.  

How are you doing on your Christmas cards?  How soon do you start working on them?

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day! 

Blessings,

Hi!  Today I have a card to share that I made for the SCS Sketch challenge.  I used the leaves from Season of Change and the sentiment is from Leaf Silhouettes.  Notice the patterned paper???  It is from Farmhouse, a new paper company which is quickly becoming a new favorite.  I scored the horizontal layer with my Scor-Buddy before adhering it to the ivory card stock to add a bit of interest.

Also wanted to let you know that Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps is having a Fall Frenzy Blog Hop this Friday!  Hope you can hop along and play along with the challenges over on SCS.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day! 

Blessings,

 

Season of Change

Today I have a fun autumn card I made using Season of Change from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps and Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft Pitt artist Big Brush pens (no ink pads, shock and awe I know!).  I colored directly on the stamp using Dark Chrome Yellow and flicked on top of it with Orange Glaze prior to stamping on white card stock.  I love the two-toned look on the leaves...  To add some filler to the white space I inked the Friendship Script Background with the Light Yellow Glaze Big Brush pen.  The sentiment was inked with Caput Mortuum and and some flecks by coloring with the same marker on my craft mat, spritzing with water and then flicking over my panel using a water color brush...uber cool technique, and a favorite!

Here is a closer look at the flecking:
