Heart of Christmas week 7 - Sentimental Wishes

Hello, welcome to week 7 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop with the Art With Heart Team. After my lovely journey home from Singapore I have another Christmas card to share with you. I love colouring in any form so as soon as I saw this stamp set, Sentimental Christmas, it was on my wish list.

For something a little different I stamped the stocking image on Basic Beige card stock. I dug out my much neglected Water Color Pencils and got to work. It's a little hard to see in this photo but I love the effect of the white pencil on any colour card stock. The other colours used were Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Garden Green, Blue and Crushed Curry.

I cut out the image with the coordinating dies. The three layers behind the image were cut using Deckled Rectangle Dies. The Basic Beige Layer was embossed with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder.

I embossed the greeting in White Embossing Powder on Cherry Cobbler card stock and then fussy cut it by hand. The final embellishment was a green twine bow.

All of the products used for my card are available through my online store.

Now it's time to hop the the next stop in our blog hop and see what my super talented stamping friend Andrea Sargent has to share with us.
