Continuing along with my goal to 'Get Cracking on Christmas' all year long, by creating my Christmas cards with a few crafty friends throughout the year! If you want to see how it all started, go to my original post here.
This month, I decided to make a special card for one of my favorite kids using the new Mama Elephant Gingerbread Cookies stamps and dies and the Big Oh So Jolly Creative cuts. I love to make Christmas cards in more non-traditional colors and this bright pink and Evergreen Bough combo was just what I needed...
To create this card, I inked up the panel die from the Hexastar Creative Cuts in Evergreen Bough (with a bit of Lucky Clover on the edges) and splattered it with some water using a Distress Sprayer. I cut and colored the images with Copic markers, then die cut the Oh So Jolly three times from Hero Arts Azalea cardstock and glued all three together to created a stacked element using my Lawn Fawn glue tube. I layered the panel and the cookies to the card with foam tape and that was it! I think a few more of these cards are in my future!
SUPPLIES:
Fun card and colours, I struggle to leave my favorite traditions silver and blue, red green and gold. Still with all those cards to make I might try these new bright colours. thanks for sharing this.
