Hello everyone!
Michelle from the Design Team here and this week’s card is all about festive fun and teamwork! Just look at these two little cuties decorating their Christmas tree. The kitty and squirrel are working together to string up lights and hang ornaments, and it couldn’t be more adorable.
Supplies used:
To create the background panel, I used a stencil and ink blended with Weathered Wood Distress Oxide for a soft brick look. Next, I shopped my stash for the arched window where I die cut it from white card stocked and lightly ink blended the edges again with Weathered Wood Distress Oxide to match.
The window background is a blend of Salvaged Patina, Peacock Feathers and Salty Ocean Distress Oxides with a silver and white paint splatters. I love how window gives a glimpse of a snowy winter sky, making it feel extra cosy indoors.
The wooden floor grounds the whole scene and this was made from my favourite technique of stamping the A5 Woodgrain stamp on Kraft card stock using Vintage Photo Distress Oxide.
Each of the critters, decorations, and the gifts were stamped and coloured with alcohol markers. A tip - a white gel pen and some strategic fussy cutting were used to separate out some of the images! They were then arranged and in some places scraps of card were used for layering and dimension.
The sentiment is a nice and simple 'Merry Christmas' heat embossed onto red card stock cut into a fish tail banner to match the red ribbons on garland framing the window.
It’s a joyful little moment captured in card form and I hope it gives you all the warm, festive fuzzies too!
Michelle
