Good morning sweeties!
Happy Tuesday to you!!
Today, SweetStamps is challenging you to create:
SIMPLE CHRISTMAS
For my card today, I wanted to really keep the card simple and show lots of white spaces.
I found myself, looking at the tress and decided to emboss it white to make it pop against the blue background. I attempted to make it very simple by creating a one layer card, but that didn't workout to well for me. I would have achieved it, if I had laid down a thicker layer of masking tape!! :(
So to salvage it, I cut it and laid it on top of the other card I was working with!! So it all worked out and I think it looks great! Added several stones to the corners and done!! :)
Very simple and super easy to reproduce if needed to be.
So, I hope you have enjoyed my project today and will find inspiration to join us this week.
Don't forget we also have our monthly challenge going on.
