WWC154 – Judy’s “All About Christmas” Challenge

Welcome to this week’s challenge WWC154 – Judy’s “All About Christmas” Challenge.

Welcome

I had so much fun Distress watercolouring this cute little image from Wild Rose Studio- Bluebell with Robin.

I had picked this stamp set up on a throw out after Christmas and just fell in love with it. This week’s challenge gave me a perfect excuse to play and begin my stash of Christmas cards for this year!

The image was stamped in Tea Dye ink. The sentiment from the set is heat embossed in silver. It was then cut using Stamplorations wonky rectangle dies. To add a little glimmer, I used MFT – Star Celebration stencil with Ranger Texture Paste sprinkled with Elizabeth Crafts Cool Diamond Microfine Glitter.

Please be sure to check out all the wonderful creations from the rest of the team on our blog.

Cute image Helen for this delightful Christmas card. Beautiful colouring. Love the little bird. Not too sure about that deer though as it looks so much like a red fox. Thanks so much for sharing.

Hi Helen, whether it’s a red fox or a deer, the image is adorable and I don’t blame you for snapping it up. I would have, had I seen it in a store. Beautiful colouring. I love that “no line” technique. It makes the image appear to have been painted directly rather than stamped. You’ve done a wonderful job, colouring and shading. All those wonderful stars, twinkling and raised really add a lot of dimension to the card as well but subtly, without taking attention away from the stars of the card. (I must find one of those wonky stitched rectangle dies).

  Thanks so much Heidi. You’re very kind! I just love my wonky stitched dies! They add just that little something to a card.
