It's time for another new challenge over at Addicted to Stamps and More and with winter and Christmas fast approaching we have a very seasonal Photo Inspiration Challenge for you this week. Here's the pic to inspire you...
Kylie's fabulous company, Happy Little Stampers will be sponsoring this week's challenge and one lucky winner will receive a $15 gift certificate.
Here's my DT card, I used the colours, the twigs and the red spheres as my inspiration...
On a white cardstock panel I stamped the twiggy branch in the top left hand corner. I then stamped the tiny bauble in red and its super tiny topper in black and then used a black fine liner pen and a ruler to draw in the string and tie. Next I hand cut some post-it notes and used these as masks to create the snow banks, gently blending the ink upwards from each mask. I then used a similar scripty sentiment which I stamped in red, and stamped the single star in silver. The panel was mounted on 3D foam and finally I added some Glossy Accents to the bauble.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Inkylicious - Twiggy Branch; Card-io - Dotty Snowflakes; Clearly Besotted - Most Wonderful and Merry Little Christmas
- Ink: Versa Color - Pinecone, Scarlet, Silver, Smoke Blue; Versafine - Onyx Black
- Accents: Glossy Accents and Derwent Graphik Line Maker pen
