Joyful Greetings- In July!


Hello! July is a great time to get those Christmas cards started, and the newly released Tatsiana Zayats Hoppy Holidays stamp set will inspire you to do so!

Although the bunny is the CUTEST, I wanted to create a card that showed some versatility with the set.  

This is a mini slimline card. I created the background paper by stamping a border along the left side and along the bottom of the paper with the holly stamp.  I then stamped/cut out masks for them using masking paper.  I used the Back Alley stencil in a grey ink color.  I removed the masks and colored in the holly with alcohol inks, shimmer pen, and some dimensional glaze on the berries.  On a piece of white card stock, I stamped the large envelope of goodies, colored the tree, star, and bird and then fussy cut them out; I attached them to the lower left corner with dimensional foam.  I stamped Joyful greetings to the side of the bird in black.  I always feel like Christmas cards need a little sparkle, so I added some bling to the tree and some pretty gold confetti to the rest of the card.  

Six months to Christmas! 

Cheers,

Vanessa
