A blog devoted to the cards I make in my tiny upstairs space. When my sister stays there, she calls it an "artist's garret". I'm not an artist, but am an enthusiastic cardmaker - hence the title "Cardmaker's Garret".

Peace in Blue

The Jingle Belles Christmas card challenge is asking us to incorporate a Peace Symbol or the word Peace into our design.  I've done both on my card:


I stamped and heat embossed the dove and sentiment, trimmed the panel with a stitched rectangle die, and popped it up on fun foam on a blue card base. 

It's a real CAS design that would be easy to make multiples of.

I'm also entering it in the Merry Christmas Challenge "Anything Christmas Goes".





Supplies:
Stamps - Penny Black dove, unknown sentiment
Ink - ColorBox True Blue
Paper - white cs, blue shimmer cs
Size - A2
Accessories - clear embossing powder, Lil Inkers stitched rectangle die, fun foam
