Hello Blogging Friends,
For some reason, I have been wanting to work on Christmas Cards for the last few weeks. Last year I can say, I was not really in the holiday spirit, but I think this year will be totally different. I am just about ready to turn on the Christmas songs and sing along.
I could not find the right background paper to go along with this Sassy Cheryl's Snowman Parts image, so I made my own using the emboss resist technique and some tim holtz blue distress inks and Stampers Anonymous snowflakes . I first embossed the snowflakes on white card stock. Then I used three different colors of ink over the entire sheet of card stock to add color. The embossed images resist the ink and come out very bright white. I then cut the colored image out with my spellbinders die and added some ribbon and a snowflake charm.
The inside is done using tim holtz distress inks and white embossing powder for the emboss resist technique. The sentiment is by Printworks Collection
Thank you for stopping by.
Blessings until next time...
