Lesley Walden - Challenge 9


Lesley Walden

Lesley has used several of her New Design Club stamps for her card.  The tree is made up of the Lupin stamp which took lots of masking to get the desired effect, but having finally got it finished she accidentally smudged the ink on the background so in true crafting style has cut it out and placed it on a red background.

The baubles were drawn on and glitter was added for the tinsel.  The star at the top was die cut using a button die.  The presents were stamped with Xmas Tree, Mistletoe Sprig, Celtic Square and Blocks of Fun and then cut to shape and placed under the tree.

To complete the card a card pen was used around the edge and a pre-printed sentiment added.

Margaret Rogers - Challenge 9


Margaret Rogers

Margaret made her card using the gelli plate and Adirondack inks to create the background.  The tree on the left was created by stamping and cutting out spruce and placing face down on top of the wet ink, then stamping the mistletoe and the snowflake from the miniature set.  A piece of card was then placed onto the gelli plate to get the impression.  The miniature Santa sleigh and sentiment were added using versafine ink, a little glitter using a gelly roll pen and liquid pearls in the centre of the snowflakes. The finishing touch was to use the mask of the tree on the right to complete the picture.
