Hand Stamped Art Straight From The Heart !!
Christmas is around the corner and I see so many beautiful handstamped cards that I just love. There are so many talented people out there. I love looking at all these cards and the creativity, but personaly I like a little more edge. With that being said, I have deceided to start my own blog on handstamped cards.
For my 1st card: Santa Baby
I used KennyK stamp Mrs. Claus at Whimsy Stamps. I hand colored the stamp with Copic markers. I than added a black border around it from card stock.
"Santa Baby" is embossed with Ebony embossing powder, and a black border added, from card stock.
The flower is also made from card stock. I used two different size flower punches to layer a flower from EK Tools, I put a link to the most similair one I could find, they do not sell the one I used anymore. After I glued the flower together I took some black chalk and with my finger and just gave it a little highlighting.
I used black card stock to make a 5 x 7 card. For the background of my card I used black and red paper from La Bella Rouge Stack, DCWV. I than added a plain black ribbon. After attaching all my pieces together using permant adhesive I felt like it needed a little bling. Adding a large rhinestone in the middle of the flower and three small rhinestones by Mrs. Claus, by Recollections at Michaels, gave it the little something it needed.
So there you have it - my first card :)
I hope you enjoy as much as I enjoyed making it.
