I used the whimsical barn stamp from one of my favorite stamp sets. I stamped it in black ink and colored it with Cranberry, Sunset, and Sunny Yellow inks using a paintbrush and water. Then I stamped two trees to make it look like winter time, and I gave it all a thin coat of fine white glitter.
The inside says "...for Christmas comes but once a year."
I hope you can make your own Christmas card this week using some of these fun challenges!
Materials used:
Cardstock: White Daisy, Cranberry
Stamps: Howdy, Cityscapes, Card Chatter-Christmas
Ink: Black, Sunny Yellow, Sunset, Cranberry
Other: glitter (not CTMH)
That's lovely - I'm glad you found your inspiration to use these colours, they're not the most obvious for Christmas but it does make us think and come up with something different! The glitter gives a lovely snowy and Christmassy touch. Thanks for joining in with the 52CCT.
