Well, I think y'all have noticed my stampin' "mojo" has been coming back en force, and it feels good!
I'm still trying to find TIME to create, and that's actually what led to this card today LOL! The thought popped in my head while I was cleaning up my desk, and since I had most of the supplies already sitting out ready at hand I made this card:
I only used 2 stamp sets - the soon-to-be-released Winter Warmth set and last month's Joyous Christmas Sentiments for the greeting.
I used to LOVE creating my own patterned paper with stamps - it feels like it's been a long time since I've done it. I pulled out a bunch of different ink colors and stamped away. I added some splatters by mixing Cherry Crisp ink with a bit of water then picking it up with a paintbrush and flicking it over the card stock (and everywhere else it seems - when I cleaned up after this card I found ink everywhere LOL!). I also added some green splatter to finish it off.
I then used the large die from the Blueprints 2 Die-namics to cut out my "patterned paper" but you could skip this step if you wanted. I just love using that die for the perfect edge it gives.
I stamped the sentiment and adhered the panel to my card base and done! This could be EASILY mass produced and with it being flat you can mail it without paying any extra postage.
I was going to go further with this card and emboss the sentiment on vellum and add embellishments - but that's the beauty of it. You can keep it Clean and Simple like this or take it further and "dress it up" - so fun!
