Hello!
I kept to the advent theme with my Happy Little Stampers design team challenge for the anything goes with dies … and made a Christmas card!
I started with a sheet of white cardstock and added stamping using the Christmas Season stamp set and different shades of green and Cherry cobbler. I then embossed this using the Fern folder which gave it beautiful texture.
Next I die cut the holly leaves and berries and the label panel to act as the focal point and then the Joy stamped word using the Colorado Stamps. I doubled up the word so it was a little more sturdy and then glued this all together as a focal point.
I then grabbed a piece of the wide cherry cobbler ribbon and added that to the panel before adding the focal cluster.
It’s difficult to see in the picture but I also added glossy accents to the berries to give them dimension and shine.
Added it to a 5×7 card and decided this was enough! What do you think?
Unfortunately though this is the last month of HLS as Kylie who has steered this ship for so long is having to rest the challenge blogs at the moment. I really hope that she only rests them but totally understand her need to do so. Hope you’ve enjoyed my contributions as much as I’ve enjoyed making them.
Happy crafting!
