Jingle Belles: winter-themed card
Less is More: silhouettes
Allsorts: one layer card
Quirky Crafts: clean and simple
For Your Inspiration: sunrise photo
As soon as I saw this stamp it made me think of walking through woods on a cold, crisp winter day as the sun is coming up. To make my sunrise I used sticky notes to mask a rectangle on the front of the card, then used Distress Inks to ink the sky. I stamped the trees in black before I removed the masks, added some gold glitter strips around the edge of the panel, and a simple stamped sentiment.
Stamps: Bare Forest 1 by IndigoBlu; sentiment by Elzybells
Colouring: Distress Inks - Wild Honey, Tumbled Glass, Chipped Sapphire
