Good Wishes for Christmas with Shari
Hi everyone! It’s Shari here with another card idea using the Holiday Card Kit 2013 inspired by Tim Holtz.
The design of my card allowed me use up some of my scraps and still create a card full of interest. I started off by using inks with an acrylic block to create a watercolor effect, then used the Simon Says Stamp Medium Tag die to get my mini collage started.
I’m in love with this color combination right now… Evergreen Bough with Iced Spruce (both included in the kit), sprinkled with a bit of Silver embossing and some black for contrast. This makes me very happy and when I’m happy, creating is so easy. Do you have a favorite combination?
I had a good time with this one using the black Rub-Ons mixed with silver embossing. It’s full of texture, dimension and SPARKLE! I have put together a video with the process, Enjoy!
I hope I’ve inspired you with another way to use your kit! If you haven’t ordered this kit, you should check them out, there is still time. This kits has so many things to sample and play with. There are two types of kits for you to choose from Clear Stamps or Cling Stamps.
Have a great day!
Your color combination is my new favorite!
Where can I purchase this holiday stamp kit? I’ve been looking all over the internet trying to purchase and I can find it anywhere. Your help please!
Thank you,
Barb
This is a gorgeous color combi! Very pretty card
Great card!
Love the stamp set.
Yes, you’ve certainly inspired me! This is wonderful on so many levels – the colors, the techniques!, the design. Love your work, Shari.
OMG!!! You are sooooo creative…wow!
What an elegant card. Can’t wait to try this technique of yours. The stamp looks very classy.
That’s different and different is good sometimes. It breaks us out of our comfy little norm. I will use the post to inspire me to step outside the box. Thank you.
Fabulous card! I love your collage and the way you doubled-up on the embossing layers. And your use of the rub-ons is very inspirational! Thank you!
Beautiful Shari. I love your take on the card kit. Beautiful color combination!
This is a beautiful card, the colors and the touch of black made it so elegant. Great technique!!!
Simply gorgeous and elegant. I’m more into cas right now, but your collage really tugs at my creative heart strings. Yum!!!!
