Still a few months until Christmas, but I find that time flys by in the fall and all sudden I have a million things to do for Christams. Jessica Frost-Ballas has an inspiring Christmas card challenge on her blog.
It can be hard to get inspired to create Christmas and holiday cards when it is still summer outside so I turn to challenges to help get me motivated. I was inspired by a card Jessica made for May, I CASED the layout and design for my card.
Materials:
- My Favorite Things "Merry Everything" stamps
- sequins(retired) and patterned paper Lawn Fawn
- Nuvo Glimmer Drops
- black Glaze pen
- white gel pen
- Prismacolor Pencil Crayons
- Gamsol (odourless mineral spirits)
- white embossing powder
- heavy weight white card stock for card base
- navy card stock
Stamp and colour the deer. I coloured with pencil crayons blended with Gamsol and a paper stump. Fussy cut or die cut the deer image. Embellish the deer with black glaze pen and white gel pen. Cut layers of patterned paper and navy card stock to fit front of card. Emboss sentiment on bottom panel. Adhere card together and embellish with sequins and Nuvo Drops.
This was a fun and quick card to make.
Thank you for stopping by.
