Two Christmas cards today. First of all for Christmas Cards All Year Round "Red and Green with Circles", I used inverted scallop circle dies for this card:
The cardinals and leaves are watercoloured, and the snow has glitter on it.
Today's other card is for Double D Challenge "Show a Building on your Project" and for We Love Stamping "Favourite Stamps". Like the Santa Horses card I posted a few days ago, I love the Snowy Postcard stamp so much I've bought a spare in case this one wears out.
Supplies:
Stamps - Serendipity cardinals, Penny Black sentiment
Ink - Versafine Clair Nocturne
Paper - watercolour paper, green and red cs
Size - 4.75" square
Accessories - watercolour paints, Spellbinders inverted scallop circles, Quickie glue pen, glitter
Supplies for card 2:
Stamps - Stampendous Snowy Postcard
Ink - Versafine Onyx Black, Distress Antique Linen and Brushed Corduroy
Paper - watercolour paper, linen cs
Size - A2
Accessories - watercolour paints, glitter, Frantage embossing powder, fun foam
You have made a really lovely vintage card with the Snowy Postcard, one I'm afraid I have not used as often as I should. Thank you so much for sharing a favourite stamp with us at We Love Stamping challenge.

ReplyDeleteYour inverted scallops made a lovely mat for those bright cardinals. The post card is such a homey, snowy warm cozy home. I see why you don't want it to wear out!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful Christmas cards Susan, love the sparkly snow round the cardinals and the distressed look of your post card :)
ReplyDeleteI love the snow cottage it is one of my fave stamps and I have used it many ways. But, you have brought it to life with these colours and I must try and have a go at replicating it.
