Xmas......

 Made a set of rather different Christmas ATC's for a swap over in UK Stampers Forum ......

The bases were cut to 2.5 x 3.5 inches from re-cycled food packaging ... I then chose some bright backing paper and trimmed to the same size, adding to the bases.

I then stamped the Christmas tree on white card with Versafine black ink and trimmed them out. they were mounted  on black card and trimmed to leave a narrow border around the trees. The trees were then added to the ATC's and they were embellished with some clear and yellow dots to embellish.

The ATC's were edged with black marker to finish .......

Hearty .....

Made a Greetings card for a swap over on UK Stampers Forum ........

The base is a white landscape DL cardbase ....

I cut a panel from white cardstock and coloured this centrally with watercolours and a water brush. Once dry I stamped it with a thin stamp (IndigoBlu) in black Versafine ink.

I then stamped some of the frames (IndigoBlu) in more of the same ink, cutting out the centres of some before applying on foam pads over the central design.

I then added 3 'stick' red card hearts as shown and overlaid this with the sentiment (IndigoBlu) matted in black card on foam pads.

The finished panel was matted on black card and applied to the cardbase to finish ....
