The Christmas Kickstart Challenge wants a mini slimline card. And it's Rudolph Days - anything Christmas goes. I pulled out a Penny Black stamp I haven't used for a couple of years.
I put the stamp in my MISTI and inked it up with Tombow markers, spritzing lightly, and re-inking as needed. I pressed some Distress Iced Spruce onto my kraft mat and diluted it with water and carefully painted it around the bottom of the image. I stamped the image in brown, trimmed the panel, and ran a brown marker around the edge of the panel to give it some definition on the card base. I added a bit of glue and glitter to the white parts of the pine cone and branches, very lightly splattered some watered down white acrylic paint, and added glossy accents to the berries.
And a second card for today, this one is for Christmas Crafts All Year Round "Tree and / or Gifts", Christmas Craft Creations "Two Colours" (I used blue and green), and Day of the Month Card Club "Love a Tree Day".
I created by trees by covering some scrap cs with double sided tape and green foil and then die cut the two trees from it. Then I grabbed a piece of leftover smooshed background from my UFO box, tore some scraps of white cs for the snowy hills, stamped the sentiment on the bottom one, assembled everything and popped it up on fun foam.
