Cheers

As the fall season slowly creeps up on us, I tend to start thinking about holiday cards. Have you seen the Christmas Trimmings Stamp & Cut? This set is chock full of images and 6 coordinating dies!

For today’s card, I made a postal friendly design. The background panel was made with strips of Midnight Mixed Layering Papers on a Snow Folded Card.

The center watercolor panel has images from the Christmas Trimmings Stamp & Cut, stamped in Wet Cement Shadow Ink Mid-Tone. I carefully watercolored around the images in a pale seafoam green. I lined up the sentiment panel with the background.

I always enjoy making my own pattern paper with strips of paper. I think that the black stripes make the watercolor panel the star of the show. The sentiment has been heat embossed in white.
