"Deck The Halls" Christmas Card (JOFY107)



A quick play this morning, finishing a card I started a few weeks ago, taking inspiration from a demo I saw by Jo Firth Young. Stamping in the half light I can see that the sentiment is a bit wonky, but hey ho, crafting isn't an exact process and these things happen.  I wasn't going to ditch it after the work put in to create the background!

I've used PaperArtsy Fresco Finish paints in Snowflake, Carbbean Sea and Jade for the background colour.

The sentiment is a stamp by PaperArtsy JOFY - ref 107 (Jo Firth Young).  I've stamped in Wow! Clear embossing ink and then coated in Wow! Rich Gold embossing powder and heat set.  I have used a gold metallic pen for the drawn edge border.

  1. Glad you didn't ditch your card,the background is beautiful the gold embossing gorgeous against it,a sentiment doesn't need to be straight,I like the slight angle
