We've had a hectic weekend, two days at the races and a house full of visitors, so no crafting has been done at all since Thursday! Here's a fairly quick card I've made for Christmas that I finished last week. It uses a Papermania stamp that I bought at the NEC which is much in demand. It's HUGE! I used Distress Inks to make a background then heat embossed it with purple hologram powder called WOW that was another NEC purchase. It's matted onto black then added to a dry embossed background with some ribbon and a lattice punch strip adding.
My card is for the following challenges:
Truly Scrumptious - sketch
Totally Papercrafts - black & purple
Paper Sundaes - pick your toppings (embossing, punches, ribbon)
No Time to Stamp - non-traditional Christmas colours
Dutch Dare - clean & simple
Beautiful card - and well worked with all the embossing!!! Like your stamp...
