Good Morning friends. Our new challenge at Merry Monday this week is brought to us by Nina and she would like us to create a rustic Christmas card.
I used an older stamp by Stampendous called Christmas Cottage. It is such a serene and peaceful image. I stamped it in SU Soft Suede ink on MFT Natural Cardstock, then inked around the edges with Natural ink and added a few touches of color with my Prismacolor Pencils. There was no room for a greeting so the sentiment will be on the inside. I mounted the stamped panel on SU Soft Suede CS and then on the Natural card base.
I hope you will check out all the fabulous cards by the design team at Merry Monday and join in our fun challenge. This will be our last challenge as Lesley has decided to close the Merry Monday Challenge. I will miss everyone on the design team and making Christmas cards each week. I will definitely be participating in other challenges and still making my Christmas cards. It is so much easier to have them done by the time December rolls around.
Thank you Lesley and Lori for having me on the design team. I have enjoyed being on the team and working with everyone in the challenges.
