Hello and welcome. Today I'm participating in the 2022
Build Your Stash Holidays Cardmakers Falling for the Holidays
linky party. I've finished my holiday cards for this year and wanted to get a head start on the ones for next year; plus for RAK requests.
I started out by stamping my images from
The Cat's Pajamas The New Nice (I have the special red rubber set) that I've had for a few years in memento tuxedo black ink on to white card stock. Thankfully
The Cat's Pajamas has the set now in digital form. Once all of my stamping was finished, I colored everything using Castle Arts pencils and a black Prismacolor marker before highlighting parts of my images using a black gel pen and Sakura 3D glaze pens. After my colored image was layered, I added some green button brads I've had since last Christmas and didn't finish using. My card is dry embossed using a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder before stippling glorious green ink over the raised images. After adding my main image panel, I lightly rubbed some poppy red ink around my colored image before adding a green organdy ribbon from my stash. The remaining embellishments are green sequins I found in my stash and crystal ice stickles highlighting the package ribbons and centers of my dry embossed images. I'm really happy with how this turned out and would like to also enter it into the following challenges.
