One Layer Christmas Card

By
This week at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown we are having a One Layer Challenge


So - quite a quick and simple card from me - take a look


I stamped the images from Ornamental Pine on to Naturals White card stock and the images have a grainy textured look to them and it really was very quick to do: colour and stamp the branch with Baked Brown Sugar and Mossy Meadow in to opposite corners. Before re-inking stamp in to the other corners to give a very faint image. Ink up the pine cone with Baked Brown Sugar and stamp the the other opposite corners - again stamping before re-inking. Add the sentiment in Real Red and with the thin end of a Real Red marker draw in a partial frame. Simples!

Don't forget to pop over the blog and take a look at the other dt entries - see you soon xx

    It may have been simple and quick, but it's stunning! I love how you've balanced the designs in the opposing corners. The bits of red really pop. The naturals cardstock was a perfect choice with the woodsy images. Awesome job, Jacqueline!

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
