Cardinal Merry Christmas card

Hello my friends.  Here's another Christmas project to share with you.  For this card I used another project previously made as a tree ornament.  You can see it HERE.  I decided to take the ribbon out from original project and use it as an embellishment and central element of this card.

For the original embellishment I stamped an image and colored, and then used multiple layers of cardstock to create a nice dimension over double doilies.

Combined with ribbon, and patterned paper I assembled the final card... and I like it.

Merry Christmas.

MIS 10 TARJETAS DE NAVIDAD - SORTEO - POST #9

Hoy les comparto una de mis tarjetas favoritas de las que he hecho para esta Navidad.  Espero que a ustedes también les guste.

La base de la tarjeta está cubierta con tela de saco color rosado, y adorné con papel de diseño y "doily" para empezar.  Luego estampé la imagen principal y coloreé con distintos medios.  Además, incluí dos mensajes estampados.

La combinación de colores no es tradicional para Naivdad, pero me gustó mucho el resultado.  Un poco de brillo y lentejuelas aquí y allá dan un toque mágico y especial a mi tarjetita.

Peace to the World... that is what everybody would love for Christmas...  Even with all the bad situations in life, war, hunger and all... I think life is good.  Hope your Christmas season is turning out to be a great on for you and your loved ones.

This is my 5th card of the contest going on in my facebook page.  You can read about it HERE.

I used spray paint to make the background, for which I covered the stamped sentiment with a mask before spraying.

Also made a little rosette and assembled with a stamped Xmas tree in the center, and several banner flags.   This was a very fun to do card.  Hope you like it and I hope to read your comments.  Don't forget to like it in facebook, and comment, share, tag your friends, and more...

Christmas Card

Christmas already?  No, no, no....  Unless we are talking about start making Christmas cards with time, we should be enjoying October and November holidays before Christmas is here.  Don't you think?  some people are already decorating with Christmas theme since the beginning of October.  I just wait until Thanksgiving has arrived.

But yes, I made a Christmas card in advance.  I assembled a vintage Christmasy look with strips of papers to which I distressed the edges.

I stamped several images from Unity Stamp Co.  The main one was stamped in the background, but also stamped on craft paper and partially cut to be placed on top for dimensional look.  I also used washi tape and enamel dots.   And I bet you didn't notice the cord around the composition framing it all... Did you?

Hope you like it.  Merry Christmas.

I'm sharing with Unity Fun Hop Tuesday.  Leave a message for a chance to win.

bye!
