Happy Christmas


Here is a Christmas card I made but haven't posted.

I have used the Sentimentally Yours Trudie Howard stamp set called "Festive Jumper".  I did try using a stamping reverse plate but I couldn't get an image I was happy with even using a black for the reverse image and a grey for the main image.  Instead I did masking and put the images side-by-side.  I have coloured the image in with Promarkers and inked around the edge with Tim Holtz's Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire distress ink.

I have used my Sentimentally Yours Elegant Eyelet Squares Dies for the matts and layers using plain cardstock and The Works patterned paper.

I have finished the card off quite simply with some ribbon, stamped sentiment and a twine bow.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
