Hi everyone, I’m doing my best to stay on a roll with my Christmas cards - here’s another tranquil Christmas scene using some of my recently purchased Card-io stamps along with a couple of older ones.
I cut a square of white stamping card, and created a circle by softly blending Stormy Sky Distress Oxide ink using a large circle mask. I then stamped the branches from Card-io Oriental Blossom using 1st and 2nd generation in Morning Mist VFC to form a wreath. I placed some torn paper as a hill mask and stamped the Christmas tree using Shady Lane VFC, then coloured the tree lights with an Sakura Stardust pen and added a couple of blended ink snow lines. I added a bit of colour to the sky by blending some Versacolor around the Christmas tree and in the sky using a dry baby wipe, then stamped a fence and a couple of trees in the background plus a couple of teeny deer in the foreground, and the sentiment. I matted the panel onto a blue border and card blank, then finally I added some Stickles to the snow lines and Liquid Pearls to simulate berries on the wreath branches.
