Hi Stampers!
Here is
another card that I created this week for the Our Daily Bread DesignsODBDSLC215 Anything Goes Challenge (have to use at least one ODBD stamp set)
along with another CCC14 Christmas Challenge card for October.
I hope
you will have the time to check out both sites linked above- gorgeous cards
from all!
To create
this card:
Using Midnight
Muse Classic Ink , stamp the Wisemen Ornament onto Very Vanilla cardstock. Mask the wisemen area and sponge Baked Brown
Sugar over the edges, remove the mask and add a bit to the wisemen.
Cut the circle
out using the Big Shot™ with the Circle Collection Framelits™ and cut another
circle from Midnight Muse cardstock with a large framelit™ from the Sizzix
Circle Collection.
Mount the wisemen
image onto the Midnight Muse circle and add the Spellbinders Flourish die cut
(split into two) at the top and bottom to create the ornament.
Wrap the Gold
Cord around the top of the die cut and set aside.
Stamp the Joy to
the World
background stamp onto a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock using
Midnight Muse Classic Ink.
Side View of easel |
Stamp the retired
Christmas Collage background (onto another piece of Very Vanilla cardstock)
also using Midnight Muse Classic Ink.
Distress the
background panels using a Sponge Dauber with Baked Brown Sugar Classic Ink. Trim the Joy to the World panel and mount
onto Midnight Muse cardstock.
Cut the Christmas
College panel in half and mount onto Midnight Muse cardstock.
Create the 5.5” x
5.5” easel card using this tutorial from Very Vanilla cardstock.
Emboss a 5”
square piece of Baked Brown Sugar cardstock using the Big Shot™ with the Lacy
Brocade Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder and mount onto a piece of
Midnight Muse cardstock.
Add the
background panels, the crocheted lace trim, scrap piece of Midnight Muse
cardstock, 3/8” Midnight Muse Stitched Satin Ribbon (“antique” with Baked Brown
Sugar Classic Ink), sentiment banner panel and ornament to the card front.
Mount the entire
panel onto a 5.5” x 5.5” Very Vanilla card front.
Stamp the Joy and
sentiment image onto Very Vanilla cardstock, distress with Baked Brown Sugar
Classic Ink and mount onto Midnight Muse cardstock.
Add the panel
onto a piece of Midnight Muse cardstock (embossed with the Lacy Brocade EF) and
add a few highlights with the White Gel Pen.
Add the Joy panel
to the lower part of the easel card and finish off the card with Pearls and a
Rhinestone for the star :-)
