Chocolate Baroque 15 minute card - Sing your song - Christmas



Good morning.

A fifteen minute Christmas card today. Useful for the last minute cards..

 
 
 


This uses a stamp from the Sing a Song set https://www.chocolatebaroque.com/sing-your-song-unmounted-rubber-stamp-sheet-a5.html

As soon as I saw this I thought it would make a good Christmas card as well as a general greeting card. It can be embellished in various ways depending on how much time you have.

I started with a backing paper made with pink and blue inkpads. This was over stamped, in the same colours, with the snowflake border stamp from Winter Edges https://www.chocolatebaroque.com/winter-edges-unmounted-rubber-stamp-sheet-a5.html

The main bird image and greeting uses Versafine ink.
I then added a border around the edge to finish it off.

The samples below show cards with slight variations.




Thank you for visiting and I wish you  a very Happy Christmas and a lovely 2019.

Bye for now and happy crafting

Yellow and grey

 
 
 
 
Hello to anyone visiting.
 
 I have a thing about yellow and grey at the moment, and seem to be homing in on anything with these colours.  Seems to be a lot of it about in home décor.
So I thought I would show you a  card I have made recently, with this colour combination.
 
 
 


I like this stamp as you can use it any way around. It is called Mosaic flower and was featured last January on the Hochanda show. Reminds me of Chinese lanterns.



This is my card I made for the show, don't think I've shown this before.



The central heart is French Heart.
 
Thank you for visiting and happy crafting.
