Today I thought I would share a quick card with you using two of our new releases. I think this card is simple enough to duplicate so I don't have step-by-step photos today.
Papers: Paper Trey Ink, Strathmore watercolor paper, Memory Box Dewfrost
Stamps: Memory Box All is Calm/Bright B1301, Memory Box Tree Silhouette E1302
Stamp Ink: SU creamy caramel, VersaMagic aegean blue
Embellishments: Memory Box sparkling diamond jewel, We R Memory Keepers photo corner, American Crafts ribbon
To create my card, I stamped the new Memory Box Tree Silhouette stamp {E1302} onto watercolor paper. I love the texture of this paper, and I also used my Derwent watercolor pencils just below the trees in a very soft blue. Then I stamped the new Memory Box All is Calm/Bright stamp {B1301} in the upper corner of the same paper. I then used the star on the end of the All is Calm/Brigth stamp to stamp my star also. I used Stampin' Up creamy caramel ink for all of the stamping except on the star. There I used a blue ink and added a Memory Box sparkling diamond jewel to the center. I then tore the edges of the watercolor paper and sponged them in the same Stampin' Up ink. I layered the image onto Memory Box Dewfrost paper, added ribbon, and then metal photo corners to complete. Simple with the focus on the stamped image. This could be used as a Christmas card, a holiday thank you, or whatever else you can think of. I hope you enjoyed today's creation! See you again soon! Happy Tuesday!
This truly is a very calm scene. I like the torn and distressed edges. Wonderful card.
