Christmas Card Throwdown

Christmas Card Throwdown

Tuesday 4 February 2014

Friends Smile

Hi there, I made this card to enter into "The Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge No 1"  which is to share a project that shows your blog signature style, which for me is quite plain, I do not like a lot of lace and flowers, like to keep things quite plain.   With this card I used a plain white card stock which I embossed with a Maya Road stencil  "Moroccan Style"   and I used Tim Holtz distress paint dabber "Walnut Stain"  and cut out the leaves with the mpress e nesting dies "Leaves" and I used the largest leaf die to cut and emboss the three with a couple of pieces of designer paper and edged them with Tim Holtz Distress Marker "Picket Fence"  and the stamps "Friends" and "Smile" are out of my stash, I have been hoarding these for years.
