Hello, how is everyone? Hope you are ready for another Christmas card. 😁
I'm popping in to share this Mini Slimline one layer stamped card with an ink-blended background. I'm not feeling well right now so I'm going to try and keep this post brief. I haven't decided what to do on the back of the card, if anything, but I did stamp an inside sentiment.
I wanted a bit of a grunge look so I stamped the Creative Expressions scene stamp with Nocturne Versafine Clair ink, then heat-embossed it with white powder. I next stamped the SeeD's sentiment with Versamark and heat-embossed with white powder. I chose 3 Versafine Clair inkpads (Purple Delight, Blue Belle and Medieval Blue. I used blending foams to apply the inks until I was happy, then I took a soft rag and wiped off the white embossing. I made tiny stars (or snow) in the sky with a white paint pen and left it to dry completely.
Then I stamped this Pink Persimmon sentiment with Majestic Blue Versafine ink.
And final view. Thanks for the visit and have a great day! XOX

Santa is Magical!
I heat-embossed my stamped scene with white powder
I used black ink under white powder for a grunge look, then I ink-distressed my background with emboss resist. I also got my fingers inky dirty! 😉

Such a wonderful blue colour! Thank you so much for joining us at ABC Christmas challenge
The distressed blending of blues created such a beautiful night sky. Ideal for you Holiday theme. The choice to use white really makes the images pop. So glad you shared this card with us at C4G. Cheers, Jolanda - DT

I really like the effect you created for the scene stamp on the bottom of this great card! Thanks for joining us at Cardz 4 Guyz! I hope to see you in the gallery again, soon.
That sky is inked beautifully. You really did create a pretty night sky. And the white images pop. I like these slimline stamps. They also work as journal page borders. Off to check the latest card. Hugs Erika
A lovely festive card!
Very nice one layer card. People don't realize that one layer cards aren't as easy as they think they are. You pulled this one layer off in good style!
Beautiful! Thanks for hanging out on our front porch at 613 Avenue Create !
