I am one of those stampers that struggle with straight stamps. For this card, I used our Stamparatus to stamp the base card with the delicate design. Cardstock sizes:
Blackberry Bliss – 5 1/2″ x 5 3/8″
Very Vanilla- 5 1/2″ x 4 1/8″ – top piece
Very Vanilla – 2 3/4″ x 4 1/4″ – inside card – stamp ‘& be Jolly this season’
To accommodate for my 1″ Blackberry Bliss strip on the left side of the card, I had to move the vanilla cardstock over for the second image.
Wha La… !
I used an Aquapainter to water color the ornaments. Using a lid from an embellishment container, use just one drop of ink. Water it down. Start to color with light, watered down ink, then add layers of color to your liking. Sorry – I was having lighting issues. These look much darker than actual…
I used two different Dimensionals on this card. I used the Black Dimensionals under the dark Blackberry Bliss layer, and the White Dimensionals under the ornaments.
I am loving the Gorgeous Gold embellishments from the Christmastime Is Here Suite, available only in November! For the gold ribbon, I attached it under the sentiment. Not only does this cover the Blackberry Bliss edge, but it now creates a nice strip of ribbon on the inside of the card that you can use for cash or a check or even to hold a picture in place.
