After a short break I'm back sharing a project with you every Friday of each month.
Since we are kicking off the month of July, and Christmas is my favourite time of year, I thought that "Christmas in July" would be the perfect way to start.
Using a background from an old calendar, I printed it out twice - one for the front and one for the back. On the front, I stamped the Moose, and Santa and his reindeer. I made the moon by making a small circle mask and blending a little Faded Jeans DO ink. As a final touch, I went over all the tree branches with a clear silver glitter pen. I also contoured the moon using the same pen.
On the inside I stamped my greeting and that was that. The background is light enough that my personal message will still be legible.
Now for the few supplies I used on this card, all linked to the Fairy Stamper store.
The Marianne Design and Frog's Whiskers Ink stamp sets were purchased during an European Stamps sales event that Fairy Stamper holds every so often. During these special order events, you find stamps from many European companies such as Nellie's Choice, Craft Consortium, Marianne Designs, Frog's Whiskers Ink, Hefty Doodle, and a variety of others. The best way to know about these events is to subscribe to the Fairy Stamper newsletter HERE. 😀
Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you will come play along with us. Our challenges go live on the first Thursday of each month on our Facebook group. All you have to do is to create a project using your stamps, and upload the pic to our challenge album. There is a prize drawn for one lucky crafter, at the end of every challenge. 😀
Till next time,
crafty hugs!
