Today's creation will be entered into the Hero Arts Holiday Cardmaking Challenge. I enjoyed looking at all the cards that have been entered and suddenly realized I had this wonderful big background stamp. It is called Hero Arts Triangle Tree Cling Stamp, and I love it!
This was my second attempt at this card. The first time, I just used green and white. As soon as I downloaded the picture, I realized it was too plain and needed a touch of bling. So, I remade the card and added a layer of red behind the image panel and then put a few tiny, red sequins beside the sentiment. I still think it could use more, or something like sequins that are a little bigger. Maybe my third attempt?
The sentiment is from My Favorite Things, and it's called Joyous Christmas. I love the big, bold style of the words.
Thanks for stopping by today. I appreciate your comments and visits very much, and I hope to see you again real soon ~
Love the background stamp, the trees look awesome!
ReplyDeleteI hear ya about not knowing the name of the greeting stamp. Early on when I first started making cards I always threw away all the packaging. Little did I know that I would start participating in challenges and would need to know the products I was using. Anyway, nothing we can do about it know, short of searching the web to find the item. I really like that background stamp - very versatile! And your card is awesome, I love the vellum, really effective here. Well done!!!
