CAS2 - Day7 - Christmas in the air

On day 7 of the online card class our teachers showed us how we could use all sizes of stamps to create an impact on our clean and simple cards. Guest designer Cristina Kowalcyk proved that you can create a great card with a lot of tiny stars and one heart. She inpired me to make the following card.


I discovered I had quite a few tiny stamps hidden away in several stamp sets, including quite a few snowflakes (much smaller even than this one by Verve Stamps) and several heart stamps. This online class does make you look at your stamps in an entirely new way, which is great.

Materials used:
Snowflake & sentiment stamp - Verve Stamps (Christmas in the Air set)
Heart stamp - Brandless 'love and marriage' set (from Action shop, the Netherlands)
Inks - Memento tuxedo black & Tsukineko VersaColor scarlet
Cardstock - Neenah solar white

I'd like to this card into the following challenges:
Jingle Belles - Ho Ho H2O!
Great Impressions - Have a heart
7 or less challenge #1 - Use a maximum of 7 items on your card

  4. the pop of red is fabulous and perfectly suits the sentiment. 7 or less sounds like a fun challenge and a real challenge. :)
