Good morning!
Today’s card features what are some of my favourite types of supplies for Christmas cards – dies for making a little winter village scene:
Stamps: Avery Elle – Starry Scene (r), Lil’ Inker Designs – All The Christmas You’ll Ever Need (r)
Dies: Essentials by Ellen – Stitches Cover Plate, Avery Elle – Starry Scene (r), Lil’ Inker Designs – Stitched Stars (r), MFT – Grounding Elements, MFT – Tiny Houses
And speaking of winter scenes, the whole inspiration behind this card was from the November card challenge prompt here.
I just love the combination of the new MFT Grounding Elements and Tiny Houses dies against the Starry Scene stamped sky. I stamped the sky in Sea Glass ink twice, so it is a little darker than normal – but it really makes the other elements stand out, especially against that lovely stitched background.
For a little extra pop, I blended Artichoke ink on the green trees and there’s glitter paper galore here: the frosty snow drifts, the champagne gold glow behind the windows, and brown glitter paper for the little doors.
I love a dimensional star and was determined to feature one here – lo and behold I already had a white star cut in the little bowl I keep on my desk of random die cuts that need using.
The perfect sentiment from Lil’ Inker Designs was just meant to be as it nestled perfectly in the space that was left.
I love it when a plan comes together. 🙂
Happy crafting, until next time!
