Happy Tuesday Peeps!!
Today I am sharing a card I made for this weeks challenge on The Paper Players Blog. This week the challenge theme is Christmas in July. I pulled out my "Contempo Christmas" stamp set to use this fun ornament stamp. I stamped the ornament with riding hood red and used my chocolate chip marker to color in the center pieces of the ornament. I used the ornament punch to punch out the ornament and added it to the white piece with some dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the retired "Bright Christmas" stamp set with chocolate chip and riding hood red onto some shimmer white cardstock. I matted that piece with choclate chip card stock.
I used the pinking hearts border punch along the bottom of the chocolate chip matt.
The base of the card is riding hood red and the card is 3-1/2 inches by 6-1/2 inches. I followed that with a layer of riding hood red and the DSP is from a retired Valentine pack, I think. I sponged the edges heavily with riding hood red ink. I used some wide striped chocolate chip ribbon across the card and tied a big pretty bow. I used a few basic rhinestone on the ornament and on the top corner. I added some brown twine jute on the ornament for the hanger and for the bow.
Well. that is all from me today, thanks for stopping by and HAPPY STAMPING!!!

This is beautiful! I love your bow! I have to admit I've never bought any of that ribbon because it intimidates me being so wide!

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this card. The pinking hearts border punch was so unexpected, but really works so well with the shape of the ornament. Filling in the middle of the ornament was also unexpected, but works sooooo well. Love the shape of the card and the sentiment is just perfect for the ornament!
All round - fabulous!
So glad you joined the Paper Players again this week
