The challenge on Simon Says Stamp this week is Christmas in August. Here is my card:
I created the background by stamping a Studio 490 stamp (Wendy Vecchi) in pine needles distress ink on a white square of cardstock. Used tumbled glass and broken china distress inks to color the cardstock. Overstamped a snowflake (Hero Arts) with broken china and then added Stickles glitter on the vine berries. The Joy stamp from Paper Bag Studios was stamped on white cardstock with broken china ink. Cut it out and added glitter to the letters and let dry.
I attached a strip of white lace from Hero Arts to the background; then added the sentiment with pop dots and a snowflake brad at the corner. The whole thing was layered to a 5 x 5 inch white base card.
Hopefully, I will have more time to get back to stamping now. Summer will be gone before we know it! I hope everyone is having a great August!
Thanks for visiting.
