Happy Wednesday, peeps! The week is almost half over! I have a Christmas card today for a new-to-me challenge called Build Your Stash Holiday Cards! Their theme is Christmas in July, and although I don't think you have to use their prompt as inspiration, I liked it so much, that I did! Here's the prompt:
(And I believe there are prizes involved!) I used the sketch from Try Stampin' On Tuesday:
And here we go:
I used some retired DSPs in Soft Succulent and Mint Macaron and the Cottage Wreath set, stamped in White Craft ink on Mint Macaron. I sprinkled Heat & Stick powder on the white image, heated it up and then added some chunky glitter to make my wreath sparkle. Some giant Specialty Glimmer paper "berries" and bow, and brown pearls completed my wreath. I mounted on an embossed banner, then used the same set for the sentiment:
It's hard to see in a photograph, but it's quite sparkly in real life! Everything went on a Very Vanilla card, and I stamped a sentiment from Hope & Peace on the inside:
Another for my Christmas card stash! Thanks for popping in today--enjoy it and be blessed!
