Here's the wonderful inspiration picture and challenge.
Isn't this a wonderful inspiration picture?
And it gave me a good opportunity to use a NBUS (new stamp).
Other challenges:
CAS-ual Fridays is still running an Embossing Challenge. My other entry used heat embossing and this one uses dry embossing.
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge says to KEEP IT CLEAN AND SIMPLE. I think this fits the bill.
Stampin' Up! Only is looking for a favorite sentiment for a particular kind of card. This is one of my favorite sentiments for Christmas cards. It's large with that curly N and simple oel.
All supplies are Stampin' Up!
Card Recipe
Stamps: Christmas Star, Greetings of the Season
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Chocolate Chip
Paper: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler
Other: Stylish Stripes EF, Basic Rhinestone
I love how this stamp holds the ink! I stamped the star with Cherry Cobbler ink on a scrap of Whisper White and fussy cut it out. I scored the long lines from the back and the short lines from the front to give it some dimension. Two dimensionals stacked in the center of the back of the card popped it out a bit.
Now it's your turn. If you need inspiration, the Design Team has a line up of fabulous cards. Then get out your stamps and ink and join us at Merry Monday.
Thanks for stopping by.
Enjoy!
