Mum and Dad's card

I showed you my first take on Mum and Dad's card a few posts ago.  Here's what I ended up with.

They wanted the traditional Christmas colours of green and red, so I made thirty cards, 15 on a Cherry Cobbler base and 15 on Gumball Green.

 

And..I had a Happy Christmas stamp all along!

 

Don't be afraid to mix up colours - the Festival of Prints uses Lucky Limeade as its green, but this worked fine against the Gumball Green background.  Also, the neutral colour in the DSP is Very Vanilla but I chose to stamp on Whisper White as the prints I chose to use had minimal Very Vanilla in them.

 

 

Stamps:  First Christmas, More Merry Messages

Card:  Whisper White, Gumball Green, Festival of Prints DSP

Ink:  Early Espresso

Tools:  Apothecary Accents Framelits

 

I have been working on lots of items for a market on Sunday so stay tuned for a few of those!

 

Thanks for stopping by!
