Hiya and Welcome to my Monday Post for Bee Crafty
Today I am sharing with you one of my Christmas makes using some of the gorgeous 'Yuletide' stamps that were on a recent show on Hochanda
I
chose a 7x7inch cardblank and trimmed a piece of white cardstock to a
few mm smaller using the cardblank and a pencil to mark the size and
then trimmed using a guilotine. I also cut another piece of white
cardstock to 6x6inch.
On the large piece I stamped the larger 'Holly Border' from the 'Yuletide Set - Holly Swirl, Tree & Borders'
around the edge first in clear embossing ink which I then heat embossed
with clear embossing powder and a heat gun, then using Stormy Sky
distress ink. Once dry I thnem inked over the edges using Tumbled Glass
and Black Soot distress inks.
On
the 6x6inch piece of white card I fixed the 6inch Inkables Template
'6inch Star' using low-tack tape and inked through it using Tumbled
Glass, Broken China and Stormy Sky distress inks starting with the
lightest. I then stamped the 'Happy Christmas'
Yuletide - Wordage stamp using black archival ink. I stamped ariund the
edges using the smaller 'Holly Border' (from the Yuletide Set again)
firstly using Tumbled Glass and then using Black Soot distress inks. I
then ran a foam pad that had been used with Black Soot ink accross the
edges.
I
matted both pieces of white cardstock using Navy Blue pearlescent
cardstock. I fixed the larger panel to the front of the 7x7 inch card
blank using all purpose glue. I fixed the 6x6 panel to the card front
using foam tape for depth. I finished the card with some flat back clear
gems.
Thank

Blog again soon for more makes from me
