Monochrome Christmas

 

The star stamps in the Memory Box set I used for this card, are dogs, but I enjoyed using the more minor stamps for a monochrome look.

Watercolour and Vellum

 

I'm really going for it this weekend, trying to catch up with making my Christmas cards. 

Here are two where I used a watercoloured background layered with some ready-made sparkly embossed vellum. 

For the first, above, I added a snowflake that I create and cut on the Silhouette. I added silver embossing powder and Frantage , with a gem in the middle and a stamped sentiment.

For my second card I used a Pure Innocence digi and coloured it in with markers and glitter markers.  I layered the vellum and watercolour panel onto a dry embossed panel - this is very layered for me!

Inkspirational Challenges : Layer It

 

Our new challenge at Inkspirational is:


For my DT card I stamped the flowers and cut them out by hand. They look uncoloured, but I did actually add some pale grey shading. Then I layered them over a scrap of patterned paper. The sentiment was stamped and layered on top.
