So, I decided to make a couple of cards that didn't have any kind of colouring on them. I thought I would save myself some time.....Ha Ha, jokes on me! While I love how this card turned out it certainly took me longer than most of the cards I have coloured this year! (& there was glitter everywhere 😁) I used my lovely new Altenew classic pine stencils, pine needles Distress ink, Memento rich cocoa & Adirondack caramel inks. After inking the pine cones & boughs I used the caramel to ink the white space in between. Next I used a Versamark ink pad & tapped it over the whole thing & then heat embossed it with Stardust embossing powder. It was then adhered to chocolate brown CS, some bronze ribbon was wrapped around it & then adhered to a Kraft card base. The Merry Christmas is a Hero Arts stamp.
Hope you have a very Merry Christmas & a happy, healthy 2021!
