Busy day on the blog! For my Simon Says Stamp Fun and Festive Blog Hop post please scroll down or click here!
Today I created three clean and simple holiday cards! I always try to have a few mass-produceable designs every year for the inevitable time I need a quick card! My first card uses the absolutely gorgeous Brilliant Baubles set!
It’s rare that I create a one layer card but with intricate designs as beautiful as these all you need is ink! I used Frosty Pink, Cotton Candy, Coral Berry, and Ruby Red to stamp my layered images and added the trendy sentiment in Ruby Red ink!
For my next pair of cards I focused on the smaller sets for these designs!
For the first card I masked off part of the panel and stamped the Poinsettia Pieces in various shades of grey inks. Then I stamped the sentiment from an older set: Holiday Wishes. For the second card I stamped the bottom layer of the flowers onto the panel with versamark and heat-embossed them with white embossing powder. Then I added the second layer with versamark and gold embossing powder. I stamped the sentiment from Brilliant Baubles onto the panel and heat-embossed it with gold embossing powder! Simple but these will definitely be designs I reach for when the holidays get busy! 😉
