**This is my second post for today, scroll down or click here to see my card for StampNation's 3rd Birthday party!**
Hi again friends! It is a rainy, dreary day here in Northern NH so I have been spending time in my craft room. I used the colors from the new Card Concept challenge to create my "clean and layered" (I think that is where this fits) card. I also used the sketch from My Favorite Things.
I did take some liberties with the sketch but the basic design is there. That is what I love about sketches, they are a starting off point for your design. The reindeer from Starry Christmas is stamped in versamark and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder.
Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

ReplyDeleteThat's one good thing about dreary days - it gives us time in the craft room. You've been working overtime with two posts today. This card makes effective use of the color combo while adding to your Christmas stash. Good job!

ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific idea to use this for a non-traditional Christmas card color combo. The border stamp at the top looks fabulous and is a great tie in to the reindeer and sentiment. A beautiful card!
