Continuing on with my non-traditional Christmas colors, I made this Kwik & Kool card.
If you were able to visit my blog yesterday, you will have seen my creation for the Holiday Hop using the Soft Subtle color family.
Working with pastels is a bit of a challenge for me, because I'm more of a Bold Brights girl... but I've been having so much fun going outside my comfort zone lately.
CARD DETAILS:
- Color each pine tree with a different Stampin' Write marker
- Huff on the rubber to moisten the ink
- Stamp ink direct to paper
- Cut out each pine tree
- Stamp sentiment in coordinating color (using your stamp-a-ma-jig for perfect placement)
- Adhere your pines in a row
- Done - Kwik & Kool!
STAY TUNED THIS WEEK ...
