Party card

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Party". This challenge will last for 2 weeks so you have plenty of time to join in!

This is already the last card for 2021. Unfortunately, COVID-19 had its grip on our lives again this year. It got us here at the last moment of the year with another lockdown. Hopefully 2022 will be the year we can put this virus behind us for good. I really hope so We're not going to let ourselves put down by it, we're having a party with this challenge. I made a birthday card for a dear friend of mine.  

First I used the Mixed Media #6 die for some texture. Then I stamped randomly with Dapper and Ledger Script. And applied some more contrast with Washi Tape. After a coat of White Gesso I started applying color using Liquid Acrylics Emerald, Metallic Paint Stormy Ocean and Infusions In The Navy.

Cold as Ice Christmas card

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Cold as Ice".

Time flies so fast, in less than two weeks it's Christmas time. This is my last Christmas card! First I started with Forest Collage Paper and Soft Matte gel. Such a great first layer and starting point. But it's also a bit bold. So I toned it down into the background by applying a thin layer of White Gesso.

 

With Distress Paint Peeled Paint, Forest Moss and Barn Door I colored some images of the Collage Paper. To bring it to the background also, I applied a thin layer of White Gesso over it. To give the card some texture I used the Sparkle stencil with Texture Paste. I gave the Woodlands a green color with Rustic Wilderness.
