I made this card using one of my favourite Christmas stamps and probably one of the first ones I ever bought.
I trimmed a piece of white card so it was slightly smaller than the front of the card blank and rounded the corners. I stamped the Christmas tree and sentiment with dark green ink and embossed them with clear embossing powder. I coloured the baubles with pink purple and gold Promarkers before attaching the panel to the front of the card. I stamped the trunk onto a snippet of dark green paper, fussy cut it and attached it to the tree. To finish I added Glossy Accents to the baubles.
To make this card I used:
7" x 5" white matt card blank
Woodware 'Christmas Bubble Tree' stamp
Woodware 'Corner Rounder' punch
Versafine Olympia Green ink
Stampendous clear embossing powder
Promarkers - Fuchsia Pink, Gold & Plum
Glossy Accents
White matt card
