Hello, and I appreciate you popping in.
Today I've a slim line card for the Christmas Kickstart challenge #47 - these are all the rage for something a bit different and they suit my large script stamp very well.....
I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed with gold and then add some foliage around the edge. I made masks for the holly so I could blend red shades of Distress Oxide over the panel -- being a narrow panel is was difficult not to get too much ink through the centre so it would seem to highlight the sentiment.... then I watercoloured the holly with Distress Ink and trimmed the panel to fit the white card and finished off with a few gold sequins.
Have a wonderful day and enjoy some creative time, cheers
