Try Stampin' On Tuesday ~ Challenge #486

I'm thinking that the next 25 days are going to fly by. There is so much to do before the big guy in the red suit arrives. We have a new challenge at Try Stampin' On Tuesday that we hope will inspire you when you need to slow down and be creative.

Optional theme: something sparkly

Isn't this an interesting sketch (yes, you may interpret that to mean that it was a bit challenging for me!)? Well, seeing that it's almost Christmas, I made a Christmas card.

I stamped the ornaments and bell using The Alley Way's Fa-la-la and Jolly Holiday stamp sets with Versafine Onyx Black ink. To add in the optional theme, I added color with glitter gel pens. I haven't yet figured out the best way to take photos showing off the "sparkliness". I punched out the circles, using 1", 1.25" and 1.5" circle punches. I found a scrap of winter-y patterned paper for the horizontal strip. The sentiment is from Simon Says STAMP's Ornaments stamp set and was stamped on a scrap of pink paper, cut into a fishtail banner. The elements were adhered to a light teal A2 card.

Hoping you'll find some time to craft and join us.

Thanks for stopping by
