Christmas in August!
Well, I decided to try out my new stamp set to make some Christmas cards ... yes, yes, I know it's crazy early but I have four more cards to add to my arsenal! :)
I used Maile Belles' gorgeous set Gracious Vases from Papertrey Ink. I stamped the images and sentiments using Jenni Bowlin's juicy inks - bright colours just perfect for Christmas! (Chili Powder and Seed Packet) I really like how these dye inks stamp with clear stamps. Really great coverage which is exactly what I want. The simple sentiment is from Lisa Johnson's Peaceful Garden set, also from Papertrey. Isn't the font divine?
I decided the cards needed a little sparkle so I used Stickles on the flowers. These are very simple clean cards so the sparkle added a little something. This colour is a dark merlot red ... perfect for this card.
Have you started on any holiday cards or projects?

These cards are lovely. I liked how you used the sentiment from peaceful Garden. It is appropriate for the holiday season. Thanks for the idea.
