Started my Christmas cards at last

I have started making a few Christmas cards using the scraps I have left over in my white card box

Covered in ink but that's normal for me, I  thought these cards would be quick but had to stamp the boots individually as even with my Tim Holtz stamp whatsit I couldn't stamp all 4 together as they made a horrible smudgy mess



For once not a promarker in sight

I used a black soot distress pad with blending brushes for the background
Cardio wellies stamp set I bought years ago & forgot I had
Various foliage stamps & sentiment
A bit of glitter for the snow
Mounted onto a 5x7 card blank

I ended up making 4 in this colourway but i'm going to change the colour of the background for the next batch

Off to make more mess

  3. Love the monochromatic theme of your card. I am unsure if B&W falls inline with our current theme for the challenge but I will consult with our blog theme experts. Anyway, thank you for sharing your creation with us @ Incy Wincy Designs Traditional Christmas Colours +/Or Colour In Kraft Card Challenge. Good luck!
