Welcome to Create with Connie and Mary’s Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Mary and I will pick a theme…this month it is “Celebrate Holidays”, and we each create a simple card every Tuesday in November using that theme!
CHRISTMAS BANNERS
Again, here is a quick and easy card that mainly uses designer paper to create!
Stampin’ Details:
- Base is 4-1/4 x 11 Pool Party cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 piece of flocked Snowflake Vellum was added to the base card, centered.
- The 2-1/2 x 4-1/2 piece of Storybook Gnomes Designer Paper was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- One of the Wonderful Snowflakes elements was colored with Pool Party and Balmy Blue Inks using the Blending Brush. It was added to the front with a Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The banner from Christmas Banners stamp set was stamped on scrap Basic White cardstock with Balmy Blue Ink and the greeting with Pacific Point Ink. It was cut with the Christmas Banners Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
