More Christmas cards




I had a lot of fun making these Christmas cards. I stamped the flourish from PTI’s Silent Night in Versmark then embossed in gold.  The gold panel is PTIs gold shimmery card stock embossed as well.  The nativity scene is a stamp from Inkadinkadoo and the sentiment is from PTIs Silent Night as well.  I debated a lot about adding another color, but in the end used scor-tape and glitter a la Dawn McVey.




I’m pretty happy with the result.



Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI White, Gold
Ink: Versamark
Stamps: PTI Silent Night, Inkadinkadoo
Other: Glitter, scor tape

Holiday Tree

I used my brand new PTI set, Holiday Tree, to make some glitter-ified Christmas cards.  I had so much fun with this set.  I used some Versamagic pigment ink to stamp the trees. 
I just stamped directly over the trees where they overlapped with no masking, and the dark trees popped to the front.  I did make a mask to stamp the tree "branches", but it's just a triangle and super easy to cut out.  Sentiment and snowflake cluster are also from Holiday Tree.  I love the font used in this set!
