Brown and Red Christmas Cards




I actually made 2 cards this evening. I was so inspired by the brown polka dot paper that I chose to use for the Kraftin Kimmie Challenge of polka dots, that I even used it on another card seeing how it looked so great together! I used the Card Positioning Systems sketch challenge for the layout. The rest of the details are listed below .....same as my other card, only the image is from Kraftin Kimmie....Lola the painter....this card will go to an artist friend! :)




This second card is for the Totally Gorjuss challenge of using a tree. New stamp from my LLS from Great Impressions spoke to me and is the only stamp that I have that is christmas and tree, so I stamped it up in black momento ink, colored it with copics and used the Spellbinder Label 4 to cut and emboss it.
I used my fake dew drops from Michaels colored with copics, random Hobby Lobby stack patterned paper and the sentiment from Gina K and is embossed in dark brown.
Sponging done in Distress inks...Linen and on the chocolate CS from SU in Walnut. STickles for a little sparkle on the snow.
