Hi! Just sharing a card (actually I made 4 duplicates) that I made yesterday. No card challenges. It was such a fun card to make, that I wanted to show you AND provide a link to Jennifer McGuire's blog, where I learned this technique. I CASE'd her card, actually. For you non-stampers that means Copy And Share Everything.
Here is Jennifer's card, below. And HERE is the link to her blog post, which includes a video.
I don't often make "cute" Christmas cards, but her card was just adorable. So...I created this.
Yeah..I changed very little from Jennifer's card. My stamped image is from a retired Stampin' Up! set that I still love. It's called Merry & Bright. I colored this little deer using the technique that I learned in the video and (like Jennifer) covered him with some clear Wink of Stella. Too cute!
Thanks for taking a look!
