Hello and welcome to my blog; today I have a fun little Christmas card for you that is a little on the unexpected side of holiday cards. I used a fun stamp set called Yuletide Pasture from the Stampin' Up! August-December Mini Catalog to create my card with today. This fun little nontraditional stamp set features three fun yuletide animal images and some wonderful sentiments. My card today is also for the Spot Color Challenge this week.
Create Christmas cards and other paper crafts with the Yuletide Pasture Stamp Set. The set includes Christmas greetings and cute pasture animals, decorated and ready to celebrate Christmas! The cat with his little scarf in the stamp set is just the cutest and makes me giggle; which is one of the reasons I picked it to use on my card today.
I have a secret...
In the new January-June Mini Catalog we are getting our very own blending brushes. So, since I attended OnStage (a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Only Event) I got to purchase them two months early. If you follow me you know that I love my blending brushes and have begged for us to get our own. So, I had to use them on my card today and try them out. And let me just tell you I was not disappointed in them. I created the background image for my card today using them.
After I had the background created I flicked on some water from my Water Painters and used a paper towel to suck up the extra to create the little speckles you see below.
After I had the coloring completed I stamped the sentiment Happy Christmas in Real Red Ink below the cat. And, added this to a Mossy Meadow mat. I popped this layer up over the braided trim with Stampin' Dimensionals.
To finish off my card I added a few of the Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels around the card to add a little more real red to the card. That finishes my card thanks for dropping by today! If you need any of the supplies you have seen today you can pick them up in my online store. Remember that the Blending Brushes will not be orderable until January 2021. They may be part of the January-June Mini Catalog Preorder in December which is only available to demonstrators. So if you want to get your hands on the new products a month before everyone else now is a great time to take advantage of the Ultimate Deal aka the Starter Kit.
Happy Stampin'
