It's Tuesday so that means CherylAnn has come up with another great sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday. I know Halloween isn't even here yet but I am now into the Christmas card making mode:) Although I promise tomorrow I will have a few spooky projects to share this week.
And here's what I came up with:
So I did change it up a little. I omitted the fourth circle and just stamped my sentiment directly on the Designer Series Paper. The images from Jolly Bingo Bits were just too cute not to use in those circles and paired perfectly with the words from the Sweet Season stamp set, which obviously would not fit in a circle:)
The base of the card is a 4 1/4 Soft Suede square, layered with a patteren from the Holly Berry Bouquet DSP that I created Faux Stitching around it using a Paper Piercer, Matt Pack and an Early Espresso Marker.
Next I layered on some Real Red Textured Card stock. I then tied some White Bakers Twine around the main piece of DSP and added 3 Mini Jingle Bells that I had threaded through some Linen Thread.This piece was then attached to the card with Dimensionals. One thing that I did add to give just a little "bling" was some of the new Dazzling Details glitter to each of the images. This stuff is so fun to work with because it comes in a squeeze bottle and is mess free!
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Jolly Bingo Bits, Sweet Season
Ink: Early Espresso Ink Pad and Marker, Soft Suede, Real Red, Garden Green
Paper: Holy Berry Bouquet Designer Series Paper, Real Red Textured, Whisper White, Soft Suede, Early Espresso
Accessories: Mini Jingle Bells, White Bakers Twine, 1" and 1 1/4" Circle Punches, Paper piercer, Matt Pack
Have a great day!
