Hiya, me again. Popping in for the second time today with another card made from the Project Imagination Chloe's Closet Reindeer Games paper collection circa last decade.
I took a piece of Basic Grey card stock scrap for my base mat and ran it through my Cuttlebug in the Lace Tree embossing folder. I then sanded it while still in the folder with my Tim sanding block tool. Once the tree was white, I inked the raised surface with my VersaMagic chalk inks in a beige bisque, a yellow green and a red. Two kinds of ribbon, paper ribbon flags and enamel dots called it done after distressing the base mat with my Heidi Swapp distress tool.
I love the way the embossed tree looks. And I'm so proud of the red bow I made. My arthritic fingers make it so hard to tie my shoelaces, much less a tiny bow. I used a sketch (linked below) for this card, one I thought would look horrible but now think it's pretty okay. I flipped the sketch 90 degrees to the left.
I got to add coordinating ornaments paper to the back. Haven't stamped the siggie yet on the back. Getting tired of doing that, frankly. I also left this card blank inside. For now, anyway.
A close-up of the embossed tree dimension and color. Yummy!
I will enter my ornaments card in the following challenges:
Well, that's REALLY it for me today. I plan to sleep good tonite. Wishes for a great week ahead and thanks so much for visiting! xoxo
