MERRY CHRISTMAS!
This year, I was inspired by a fellow Sassy crafter Shannon to try something a bit new for card bases.. I loved it so much I'm actually going to give it a go with trying to adapt it to a Scrapbook layout too.. :)
Anyway, it's such a fun technique of cluster stamping in a sort of cross in the middle of your plain cardstock, then cutting that cardstock up into the 4 sections sized for the card toppers.
I got a little carried away and didn't exactly follow the concept of a cross though.. oops.. lol..
I actually ended up with 3 different stamp set designs (only two are included below, sorry)
I stamped with a solid Black, a Coral ink and Forrest green ink to coordinate best with the OUTBACK EVE collection - Kaisercraft. The added a little Gold ink for the stencil that matches with the gold glitter cardstock I added as a topper. I finished off the cards by inking all edges with a Golden Black ink so it wasn't as harsh as the stamped black images.
In total I made 24 of these cards... And most of them have found their way to the USA and one to the UK...
We would like to wish all of my crafting friends and family a very Merry Christmas, I hope you all have a lovely and wonderful day fill with great moments that will become memories cherished and a bright New Year coming ahead. Toni, Lane & Hunter.. xoxo
Let me know what you think!
Thanks for your time, Happy Scrapping..
