Sometimes I like to create a little scene and so today I have made a little mantle piece to hang my stocking
- Stamped the Power Poppy stocking from the Poinsettia set with Bundled Sage DI, watercoloured it with Distress Inks and fussy cut it out
- Using some brown card I cut strips and swipe Walnut stain DI to give a timber appearance and formed it up with foam sheet
- Stamped the sentiment from Happy Little Stampers - Mixed Christmas Sentiments with Versamark and gold embossed it
- The mantle was a bit bare so I die cut a candle from Sizzix Festive Things
- The background then was a bit tricky and decided to go with light brown card and dry embossed it with Cuttlebug Diamonds in the Rough EF.
I am playing along with June Christmas Kickstart challenge #51 - Stockings were hung by the chimney with care.
Thanks for visiting, have a Wonderful Creative day, cheers
Super card, Robyn. I love all the details and how you created the shelf. Thanks so much for playing at Christmas Kickstart again, Jo x
ReplyDeletePretty stocking, Robyn, and I love how you've "built" the mantel!
ReplyDeleteI keep trying to leave a comment and my comments seem to disappear have way through typing - am I jinxed or what.
ReplyDeleteI love you scene and I am wowed by your painting with distress inks. Doing some cleaning today as my daughter and two of her daughters will arrive later this evening.
I need to practice with my no line water coloring - I have a long way to go!!
Congratulations on your wonderful Christmas card!
