Hi friends! It’s Monday and time for another challenge at Merry Monday! This weeks challenge is bought to you by Deanne. She has challenged us to create a Christmas card using a stencil. I hope you get a chance to play along with us this week.
For my design this week I blended Bundled Sage, Pine Needle, Gathered Twig Distress inks onto Koh-I-Nor Bristol card with the Memory Box Garden Holly stencil. I added Nuvo Crystal Drops in Red Berry to create the berries. I splattered some FineTec Pearlescent colors onto the background.
I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment from Simon Says Stamp Stain Glass Greeting stamp with VersaMark ink unto Stampin Up Real Red Cardstock and heat embossed with Ranger Liquid Platinum (EP), The sentiment was then adhered onto the stenciled panel. I then adhered unto an A2 Top Fold Stampin Up Garden Green cardstock.
