Hello! We are getting closer and closer to the holiday season and that means it is time to make some holiday cards! So for the next few weeks, I will share fun Christmas cards you can easily create and today’s card is just that.
I am also playing along with a fun blog hop by Altenew and Pretty Pink Posh – You probably came from Lisa’s blog and no worries if you are just starting! Keep hopping along the list (see below) and you will make a full circle. There are prizes and shopping discount code, so make sure to stay tuned!
I wanted to create a warmish card (just like the sentiment says on the card) for today’s project. So, here we have a Christmas tree with lots of sparkles with warm background. Want to find out how I created those warm, floating light looking background? Make sure to watch the video tutorial!
Sketched Evergreen stamp set is perfect for creating a layered and dimensional look. I also added different shades to the tree using couple different inks and the MISTI tool. Christmas tree can’t be without some sparkling ornaments! To create those, I added Blue Lagoon sequins and Metallic Silver sequins from Pretty Pink Posh. You can see different sizes I used in the supplies list below.
What do you think of today’s card? What is your favorite color of sparkling ornaments to hang on your Christmas tree? Comment below, I’d love to hear your favorites!
