I'm trying to make more than one card when I have some supplies out, so today I've got two versions of the same design using one of my favourite Christmas stamps.
Up first is one that is done in rainbow colours:
The image is stamped in Archival ink, coloured in rainbow order with Gansai Tambi watercolours, bordered in black, and mounted on fun foam on a cream card base.
And the second one is a much more masculine version:
I don't know what black ink pad I used when I stamped up this one - I thought it was the same Archival one I used on the other card, but when I came to watercolour it, the ink ran. I'm okay with it as it ran into the sky so it just makes it look like a darker sky - and kind of fitting for the masculine look I was going for by watercolouring the buildings in shades of greys and browns. I bordered it in copper shimmer cs and popped it up on fun foam on a cream card base.
The first card is going over to
CAS Watercolour where the monthly theme is
"Rainbow".
Then either it or the other one will go over to the
Jingle Belles challenge "O Little Town of Bethlehem - cards that feature buildings.
And just out of curiosity, which one do you prefer - the rainbow version or the masculine version?
