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".

Candy Canes on Red and White Stripes

This week the Peace on Earth challenge has a mood board full of red and white and some greenery.  It inspired me to make this card:

A stamped and watercoloured image, popped up on fun foam on red and white striped dp, and finished off with some glossy accents on the gold ornaments.

Here's the Peace on Earth mood board if you want to be inspired by it.  If not, feel free to join us anyway with an "anything Christmas goes" card. 










Supplies:
Stamps - Stampendous candy canes, SSS sentiment
Ink - Versafine Clair Nocturne
Paper - watercolour paper, striped dp, off white cs
Size - A2
Accessories - watercolour paints, Glossy Accents, fun foam
