Hey everyone! It's Tuesday and that means it's Inspiration day over at STAMPlorations! As usual we've got an amazing variety of projects to share. This week I decided to make a Christmas card with a new stamp set I got recently. Check it out...
I stamped my framed poinsettia (Framed Christmas: Peace Love Joy set) in black Memento ink and then created a mask to cover it. I stamped my branches, holly and berries (Christmas Bell Medley set) around my framed poinsettia. Then I coloured everything in with my Spectrum Noir markers. (The branches were stamped with Tea Dye Distress ink and the berries with Blazing Red StazOn). I added a bit of gold with a gold Pentel marker around the frame of the poinsettia as well as the center part of the poinsettia. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment in black. I'm quite pleased with the results. :-)
Well, I hope you'll come on down to the main blog and check out everyone else's awesome projects. Have a fantastic day and thanks for stopping by!
