Non Christmas Stamp Christmas Card

Over at Just Add Ink this week the challenge is Christmas Cards made with non Christmas stamps, I love the idea of this. I have used the solid leaf image from the new stamp set Fabulous Florets, which is in the new summer mini. I stamped the image in garden green. The poinsettia has been made from the wing of the two step bird punch, I have sponged the edges with Cherry Cobbler the same colour I punched them out of.


Also notice the twine it is bakers twine from the new mini. The twine is great you get around 23 mt for $6.25 how cheep is that.


take care

JAI 91

At Just Add Ink this week it is a colour challenge, and I love these colours together. I personally haven't used blushing bride a lot, but it is a very pretty colour.
I have done a very simple idea, My neutral is basic black.
How I have done the colour panel I have first use Tim Holtz applicator to cover with blushing bride then changed ink to cherry cobbler and only brush around the sides. After that I used basic black and did just the edge. layered it onto basic black card.
The flower is from hostess stamp set simply soft this has been embosses with black embossing powder, same as the words at the bottom.
The frame around is done with a ruler and cherry cobbler marker pen.
I just love the finishing touches of this card, the black gems and I am in love with the brad holding the tags, it is from the trinkets.
