Hurray! One more Christmas card I can cross off my list. And Whimsy Stamps in always there to help me create something beautiful. I was able to incorporate several different products from Whimsy Stamps on this sweet card. Have you started your Christmas cards yet? If not, I hope you'll pop on over to Whimsy Stamps to check out all their fabulous stamps, dies, patterned papers and more.
Basic black cardstock was my base, and that's layered with a pretty paper from the Cozy Winter 6x6 Paper Pad. Next, I used the largest rectangle die from the Mix & Match Scalloped Rectangle Dies to cut the rectangle from white watercolor paper. I rubbed that paper with Spun Sugar & Kitsch Oxide Inks and then used Heavy White Gesso to add the textured background by using the Twinkle Stencil. I used the smallest rectangle in the Mix & Match Scalloped Rectangle Dies to cut the smaller (sentiment) rectangles.
I used the New Joy Dies to cut the word JOY, the snowflakes, hearts, holly leaves and ornament. This new Joy Die is FABULOUS. I know I'll use it A LOT this Christmas and for many more ahead. I added a few tiny beads from a Confetti Mix. And finally, the stamped sentiment I used (Joyeux Noel) is found in the Christmas Moments Stamp Set; which, somehow, has disappeared from the store in the last week. ????? Don't ask me!
Thanks again for visiting me today. I'd really appreciate it if you would take a moment to pop on over to visit my Instagram Page and FOLLOW me there as well as here on my blog. I always appreciate your visits and love hearing your comments. Happy crafting, everyone.
I'm playing along in these FUN challenges:
