Hi Everyone! I'm here today with a card that was inspired by the
Shining Light Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs to create a Christmas card using their stamps.
I also was inspired by
The Deconstructed Sketch No. 179. This was my first time playing along with The Deconstructed Sketch but, I don't think it will be my last. Here is the sketch...
Now for my card...
For my card I chose to work with the
Poinsettia Wreath stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs. My patterned paper is from Graphic 45: The Twelve Days of Christmas. I used some pre-made borders from K&Co. that I had in my stash from a couple of years ago for the paper strips. I cut out my square using Lacy Squares from Spellbinders and added some Liquid Pearls as well as Cherry Cobbler ink around the border. I colored the image with Copics, which I am still desperately trying to get the hang of for several years now. LOL The truth is I just don't use line art images that often so, I don't get enough practice. To be honest, line art images intimidate me.
Well, I hope you like my card and if you haven't tried either one of these challenges you should!
Be Blessed,
Oh, Jennipher what a beautiful Christmas card! I just love this wreath, and I love the bow you've added! Beautiful take on the sketch, and I love the scalloped border with the pearls!
