Warmest Winter Wishes ....


Today's blog project comes from Design Team member Donna who has made a gorgeous card using our 'Winter House' stamp set.

And here's what you'll need to make the card:
15.5cm card blank cut down the front at 10cm (Donnas has punched a fancy edge along hers)
Matting - 15.3cm square and 15.3cm by 7cm
Patterned paper - 15cm square and15cm by 6.7cm
White card (for image) 9cm by 11.7cm and matting card 9.7cm by 12.4cm
Sentiment (from Christmas House set) cut with Spellbinders die and scallop circle cut using matting card
Ribbon and embellishments
Glitter
Promarkers

And here's what you need to do:

1. Stick down the matting and patterned paper on to the inside and front of the card, adding ribbon at this stage to achieve a neat finish.

2. Stamp and colour image.  Add glitter.  Stick on to mat.  Stamp sentiment, add glitter and stick on to mat.

3. Stick Christmas House image on to card front as shown so it overhangs 1/2cm - NB only put double sided tape or glue on the top half of the image.

4. Decorate and embellish - Donna has used the little bird house from the Good Morning Robin stamp.

Doesn't that look gorgeous?!  It's a really effective way to use the stamps and would make a lovely Christmas card for someone special.

Don't forget to leave us a comment to let us know what you think.
