It is hard to believe that June is already half way over! I hope you have had some time to play along with this month's Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Sketch.
Using some of my new Echo Park Christmas papers was a no-brainer, when it came to creating a card for Sketch #46! I picked up a Spellbinders Love, Peace, & Hope wreath stamp and die set a while back on clearance - which served as the focal point of the sketch. It's done with gold heat embossing and then giving a faux watercolor look with a variety of Distress Inks.
I fussy cut one of the Santas from the paper and popped the top portion out over the red checked paper. Taylored Expressions' Swirls Pierce & Cut Plate gave some fun movement and visual interest to the top half of the sketch. It think it looks like a windy winter sky! I found the gold die cut word in my stash and added the "Merry" above it and then finished the card off with some gold and red sequin embellishments.
I am looking forward to seeing what you add to the Sketch #46 FB gallery! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
In kindness, Cathy
