Hi everyone, this week’s challenge at Allsorts is to use patterned paper … something I rarely do nowadays although I have enough to stock a craft store! Given this prompt I decided to look some out and have a little play with it, and the result was a simple (but hopefully effective) card with shadow stamping.
I tore two pieces of patterned paper and attached down the left side of a kraft card blank, then shadow stamped a group of fir trees using first Portobello Versafine Clair, then Brilliance pigment ink in Moonlight White. I grounded the trees with brown Zig pen and white Posca pen, then stamped the sentiment in Portobello and added white Posca “snow” accents. I then died some white Posca snowflakes and that was it - job done!
Stamps: Lavinia Christmas Tree Group; sentiment - Visible Image Poinsettia Grunge;
Media: Versafine Clair (Portobello); Brilliance Pigment ink (Moonlight White); Posca pen (white);
Paper: LotV Krafty Christmas.

Gorgeous card. I love how you've played with the kraft card and the papers in those kraft and brown tones. The scene that you've created with the trees and the snow is awesome. Thanks for joining us at My Time To Craft.
Sorry we pushed you outside your comfort zone Pauline, can totally identify but equally really appreciate you taking the time to create for the PD's theme this week at Allsorts, thank you.

Well done for delving into your patterned papers for this card. Two super pieces chosen and the shadow stamping on the kraft card has made a beautiful Christmas card.
Your card is something special. I love it. Thanks for playing with us at Creative Moments.
