Merry Monday Peeps!!!
Today Lesley at Always Playing with Paper has a fun new sketch for us:
I flipped the sketch, well actually it is a mirror image of the sketch.
I moved the flag panel piece to the opposite side to accommodate my sentiment piece.
My image of the pretty bells comes from the Stampin Up "Bells and Bough" stamp set and I was very much inspired by THIS BEAUTY created by the super talented Amy White.
I loved how she colored and layered the image and wanted to try it myself.
Here is a closeup pic of the layers:
The DSP on here is from the Festival of Prints pack and the pretty plaid is from the Storytime pack.
The sentiment is from the "Open Sleigh" stamp set.
I added some crystal effects to the berries and covered the rest of the image with a bit of shimmer paint:
The base of the card is Riding Hood Red, one of the colors that is retiring. I then added a lyer of white and then the DSP.
I think this may be my favorite Christmas card, I have made so far this year!
Now be sure and hop on over to Lesley's Blog to see what the rest of the Merry makers
did with this great sketch.
Thanks for stopping by today and
HAPPY STAMPING!!!
