Christmas x2

Hello there! I have more Christmas cards to show you all today, inspired by this fortnight's sketch over at the AAA Cards challenge.



After stamping my sentiment (Ombré Sentiments: Christmas, PTI) and greenery (In bloom: Frenchy's festive florals, Winnie & Walter), I finished off my panels in different ways. On the first card, I trimmed my panel closely above and below my stamping and adhered two thin strips of cardstock that I had inked with the same inks that I had used for my stamping (Warm greys, Altenew) before adhering the strip to my cardbase.


On my second card, I adhered the entire panel to a red cardbase and then added two lines using a dark red coloured pencil.
