Today it's my turn to share another Whimsy card highlighting one of our stamps. So for this card I've again chosen one of the new release rubber stamp for July, and is available in the Whimsy Store.
I decided to cool myself down and create a Christmas card...and yes I did use the 'C' word. Sorry!!!The beautiful stamp I used is called 'Watching For Santa' and I was drawn by one of my wonderful friends Crissy Armstrong. Isn't this the most beautiful angelic scene. I coloured the image using Copic pens and took the colour palette from the patterned paper I used as I wanted to create a vintage look. I hope you like it. x
All the links to the specific Whimsy products can be found below and the link to the general store is here.
First I trimmed a piece of pretty patterned paper to cover card front leaving a slim border around the sides. Then I stamped and coloured the gorgeous Christmas image with Copic pens, once finished I die cut it into a rectangle and mounted it onto pink and green card, then onto the card front using foam pads.
To bring the card together I die cut a poinsettia and some holly from the same pink and green card used to mount the topper. To finish the card I added a die cut sentiment from the same pink card and mounted it onto funky foam add dimension.
