Ink #201

We have a new challenge at Inkspirational - a word prompt - naughty.

A Tim Holtz sticker stating "naughty and nice list" was my starting point - so decided to go for a Santa cut out from a freebie paper and another freebie paper for the background. I added a die cut Lawn Fawn photo frame and die cut branches covered with glitter paste.

I'll be home for Christmas...

Here is another Christmas card ready and done.

I used a sweet image from Penny Black. I actually think it's from a birthday set, but by adding a glittery die cut tree I think it turned out festive. I colored with my Promarkers and added glossy accent to the car windows.

The embossed background I received from Monika of Creative with Monika some time ago.
The sentiment is a chipboard one from Tim Holtz - I've used these a lot on this year's cards.

Wreath/Flowers/Winter clothing

Christmas is quickly approaching and I got to get those last Christmas cards done. This card was surprisingly quick to make, I'm normally a slow card maker.

The wreath and dies used to decorate it are from the same Craft&You die set. I used glitter paste on the wreath and the poinsettias I ran through an embossing folder before inking the edges.
The girl is a paperdoll from Tim Holtz.
The background I stamped with white ink, using a script stamp.
Finally I added a sentiment and lots of liquid enamel accents around the wreath.

ABC Christmas Challenge - W for Wreath/X for FauX
Allsorts - #546 Christmas Flowers

Ink #200 Celebration+photo

We have a new challenge at Inkspirational - Celebration - as we are celebrating our 200th challenge.

I was inspired by the colors of the photo and I was thinking of celebration as in celebrating Christmas - my favorite time of the year.

Most of the stamps are from Concord&9th. First I stamped with white ink and then a second layer of purple and of red for the pattern inside of the snowflake. I heat embossed the sentiment with white EP and added gold frantage.
