Good morning everyone. Another weekend has come around, and it looks like we are in for a couple of sunny days. Cooler, but that's good too.
Here, I have a Christmas card using another one of the new images from Just Inklined. This one is titled Garden Santa. After colouring him up with my copics, and cutting him out with my Spellbinders die, I've inked the edges with DI. Hopefully this all works together to provide a nighttime theme, because of course....that is when he will be visiting! However, here in my part of the world, he won't find much to see in my garden!
The Merry Christmas sentiment, from Hero Arts, is stamped and then heat embossed with gold embossing powder. Then I've gone around it all with a fine black marker to make it stand out better.
Supplies used:
Basic Grey papers - Jovial collection
Spellbinders die - Labels Two
Simon Says die - Curvy Snowflake
Martha Stewart punches - Crown Punch and Pine Branch
Other items include stickles, flower and pearl centre from my stash.
Hoping you all have a wonderful weekend, and a chance to enjoy some of the good weather....while it lasts.
