Hello! Friday comes around so quickly some weeks – so I am glad I had this project made, photographed and video edited and loaded so it was ready to share for this weeks Festive Friday!
I had woken up the day I made this thinking I fancied using this stag stamp which is one of my all time favourites – a very old Creative Stamping Magazine one I think.
He is so handsome. I stamped him in archival on crumb cake cardstock and then added colour with my watercolour paints.
I also added lots of splatter, in both paint and the shimmer ink.
I then created the card using green cardstock and layers of the lovely papers – the tartan is Indigo Blu paper and the red check was actually cut from an envelope I received a card in and loved so I cut a panel from it and stuck it in the Christmas paper stash!
I used card Candi and a little loop of ribbon to embellish.
Inside the card I added some of the off cuts of the paper that were left on the desk to bring the outside of the card inside and repeated the same sentiment.
I really love that stag stamp – I just think he adds a touch of elegance and perfect for a tartan based card too! Could just imagine him in the highlands!
Happy crafting!
