Just a quick post from me tonight with a card that I have made using my new Simon Says Stamps ornament set:
I stamped the ornaments in Peacock Feathers and Shabby Shutters Distress Inks and then watercoloured them to give a bit more depth and shading. The panel is die cut with my current fave stitched rectangle die from Lawn Fawn and the sentiment is silver embossed from PTI. I lightly inked my Hero Arts confetti stencil to create a bokeh type effect in the background.
I will link up at this week's Merry Mondays challenge to use non-traditional Christmas colours. I hope to play along again this week as I love using different colour schemes for my Christmas cards. I will also join up at the Simon Says Stamp Flickr Challenge to use watercolouring given that I am using my new SSS stamps :)
I hope you like my card. Thanks for stopping by....I really appreciate your support!
