A Non Traditional Christmas Card

I’m back with another card for our November Holiday Event celebrating our 2016 collaboration partners and paying it forward to you, our readers!

Warmest Holiday Wishes

Hi everyone!
Ilina’s here today with a simple Christmas card. I used some hot press watercolor paper to stamp the images on and then die cut. I used Versamark ink and white embossing powder, then I watercolored them with Mijjelo watercolors and a waterbrush. I cut a panel from white card stock and arranged all the elements to see where I wanted to add my sentiment and the little stitched accents. 
And one HUGE Thank You to the wonderful sponsors we had this year:

Joyful Hero Arts Pine Branches Wreath

Hi Friends! Are you ready for the Holidays? We are! This month we are celebrating our 2016 sponsors and our awesome readers with a fun Holiday Themed November event! 10 of you are going to get some fun December happy mail – All you have to do is leave a comment on any of this months posts, and for extra entries, link up your holiday project to our main Challenge Post

 Pretty fun?!

For my card I used the new Hero Arts Pine Branches stamp and die combo and stamped a ton of images, some directly onto the card base, and the rest cut out separately. Once I had them layered up the way I wanted I used the Press N Seal method to lift them all up and glue back down in 2 dimensions. I cut my sentiment from some Foil paper I had in my stash, and adhered on with foam tape, and to finish I used some stickles just to add a little bling to my white space.

Before I go, I’d like to graciously thank our 2016 sponsors for their collaborations this year. Don’t forget to leave your comments / link up to the challenge for your chance to win goodies, possibly from one of these fine companies!

Until next time…
