Celebrate the Season

Today's card was inspired by Heather's May colour combo challenge at the Winnie and Walter blog.


I was inspired by the colours as well as the inspiration photograph below.


After masking off the bottom part of my panel, I used make-up blending brushes to blend my 3 colours of CP ink and then repeatedly stamped the trees from Scenery: Into the woods (W&W) in Versafine onxy black ink. I used the same ink to stamp the 2 small images from Happy Christmas onto a scrap of cardstock and heat-embossed them in clear before fussy cutting them out. The sentiment is from the Sentimental winter set. I die cut the panel using a stitched rectangle (SSS) and then adhered everything to my white card base.

I'm playing at:


Crimbo Crackers - #186 Anything Christmas goes

Christmas at Sweet Stampin' - Anything Christmas goes

Stamping Sensations - Show your true colours (lots of colour)

HLS Christmas - Anything goes (optional: non-traditional)

    What a striking creation Marianne, the background inking really sets off the stamped trees, thanks so much for joining our June theme at Stamping Sensations challenge.

    Your sunset (or sunrise) is gorgeous and well blended, Marianne. The silhouettes are a great way to add images without distracting from it. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Happy Little Stampers Christmas.
