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".

Pink Candy Canes and Bow

Check the bottom right photo on the Peace on Earth mood board at the end of my post and you'll see my inspiration for this card:

I stamped the image and coloured it with Tombow markers.  Trimmed it with a stitched rectangle die, bordered with dark pink cs, went over the ornaments with glossy accents, and over the edges of the ribbon with a sparkly gel pen.

Please head over to Peace on Earth for more inspiration from the Design Team and then join us with either a card inspired by the mood board or an "anything Christmas" card.


I'm also adding the card to Christmas Craft Creations "Non Traditional Colours".








Supplies:
Stamps - Stampendous candy canes, Hero Arts sentiment
Ink - Versafine Clair Nocturne
Paper - white and dark pink cs
Size - A2
Accessories - Tombow markers, glossy accents, pink sparkle gel pen, Lil Inker stitched rectangle die
