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".

M is for Mistletoe

Christmas Cards All Year Round, wants something starting with "M" card.  I went with mistletoe - die cut, dry embossed, and a mistletoe sentiment.  It's also for the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown technique challenge "Embossing Folder".

I used a narrow mistletoe embossing folder across the lower part of the linen cs card base.  I die cut the mistletoe out of white shimmery cs and out of scrap cs and glued them together for more dimension.  And stamped the sentiment in grey ink.

 









Supplies:
Stamps - Penny Black sentiment
Ink - Versafine Smokey Grey
Paper - white linen cs, white shimmer cs
Size - A2
Accessories - narrow mistletoe embossing folder, mistletoe die
