My Candy is here. I'm a new blogger - I'd like some new followers :-)
I made this Christmas card today after being inspired by several challenges (see below).
I stamped the image in black on a white square, coloured with pencils, and mounted on a decorative red square. I embossed a white panel with snowflakes, attached a strip of "Let it Snow" ribbon, and affixed to a white card base. I affixed the mounted image to the card with foam tape and embellished with metallic holly leaves and clear gemstones. Here are the supplies I used:
- Stamp: Penny Black ("The Wonder" set of clear stamps)
- Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
- Pencils: Prismacolor
- Die: Spellbinder Fleur de Lis Squares
- Embossing Folder: Cuttlebug Snowflakes
- Cardstock: Recollections Card Base: Domtar
- Ribbon: Dollarama Gems: Kaisercraft
- Sketch: MFP Speedy TV (see below)
