Hi everyone! It’s Monday, and that means it’s time to make Christmas cards for Merry Monday! Here’s our beautiful challenge from Karen for this week:
I went clean and simple for my card today, using a wreath image from Papertrey’s Wreath for All Seasons, stamped and embossed in white:
To mimic the pretty ornaments from the inspiration photo, I colored some pearls with Copic markers and added them to the wreath:
I added some retired Certainly Celery ribbon and a sentiment from Amy R Stamps called Handy Christmas Greetings, stamped in Strawberry Slush. The image was stamped on Soft Sky and matted with Coastal Cabana and adhered to a stitched mat from Lil’Inkers.
I hope you will play along with us using this fabulous photo as your inspiration…it’s so nice to get a head start on all those Christmas cards so you can relax a bit come December! And be sure to check out all the wonderful samples from the other designers as well!
