Hello and welcome!!! As we finish the final countdown until Christmas, I'm rushing to finish Christmas cards I'm sending out. (Note to self: start making them in January - again. **sigh**)
Today I'd like to share a card made using one of my all time favorite stamps period. It's an old retired one from Stampendous (2004) called Wise Siamese. After stamping the image in memento black ink then coloring with copic markers, I sponged some Tim Holtz faded jeans distress ink and Stampin Up sahara sand around the edges before layering. I then took a scrap of Stampin Up not quite navy card stock to use as a border and embossed it using my big shot and a cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder before sponging navy ink over the embossing to help highlight the border. I then popped up the layered panel over my embossed border on a card made using some rarely used (RBUS) Stampin Up sahara sand and some new (NBUS) Recollections designer paper my daughter bought me. The only embellishments I used were some rarely used (RBUS) Stampin Up not quite navy brads, ice stickles Wise Siamese crowns/collars, and a small navy bow sticker.
I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
