Blogger's Challenge

This weeks challenge was to use one stamp in different ways. Ya know, to show the versatility of the stamp. So of course I pulled out my Big on Christmas stamp set to make a Christmas card. This is the same stamp I have used twice before to create birthday cards. Those cards are also added to this post with links to the details. I hope you enjoy.



This is the first time I have used this set the way it was intended to be used. Here is the front and then next picture is open.




The base of the card is Certainly Celery. I folded it in half and then cut off a 1 inch strip on the bottom front with a scallop blade. I added a 1 and 1/4 inch strip of designer paper from the Wintergreen collection on the inside bottom. The main image is stamped on Whisper White and layered on Real Red. I colored the letters in with marker and the re-stamped the tree and cut that out to pop it up. The tree is also colored with markers and I added a highlight to the word holiday with the marker too. I used a red gel pen to add dots around the focal image and around the scallop edge. Before attaching my focal image to the card I stamped a row of ornaments from the retired Ornamassortment Set. The branches are from the retired Holiday Hedgehogs set. I think it turned out kinda cute although I like the birthday cards better! See below.
