There’s a fab challenge over on the Less is More challenge blog today – a one layer card with the 12 days of Christmas as the subject.
This really had me scratching my head at first – I didn’t think I had anything in my stash that would work. Until I remembered the from this day forward stamp set from Stampin’ Up, which has two beautiful birds in the main image. I thought these could be two turtle doves, so I made this one layer Christmas card using non-traditional colours…
I inked up the stamp with my stampin’ write marker pens, and added dazzling diamonds glitter with a two way glue pen for some sparkle.
I stamped a row of musical notes in tempting turquoise across the bottom of the card.
And speaking of the 12 days of Christmas, I discovered this video on youtube this week – the dancers are so talented and their routine is just brilliant! So, turn on your speakers, sit back, relax and enjoy four minutes of pure genius …
Here’s what I used to make today’s card – all supplies from Stampin’ Up!:
cardstock: whisper white; stamp sets: from this day forward, more merry messages, music notes wheel; inks: tempting turquoise, markers in pink pirouette, melon mambo, soft sky, tempting turquoise, certainly celery (retired), lucky limeade (retired); accessories: dazzling diamonds, two way glue pen.
I love receiving your messages, so if you have any questions, or you just want to say hi, do please leave me a comment.
Thanks for dropping by today
