Christmas Candles
Good morning ! It's a beautiful sunny Fall day here in Ontario ! I had a great time teaching at the "Christmas Doodles" class on Saturday at Crop Circles with the creative & fun ladies. They made 8 cards with the new "Shirley Doodle" stamps, it was busy ! I'm posting a Christmas Card today that I designed for Crop Circles.
I used a new Spellbinder Nestability to cut the shape and stamped and embossed the Candles & Holly with gold and coloured them with my Tom Bow markers. The Christmas Candles image is a Shirley Doodle stamp. I distressed around the image using the die as a 'mask' using "Old Paper" Distress Ink. I used the Cuttlebug to emboss the green mat. I used Impression Obsession's Cover a Card Flourishes CC027 with gold embossing on Basic Grey's 'Wassail' paper. I also added some of the striped paper from that collection. A bow and some red stickles were added as the final touch.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day !
