Peace on Earth -Sketch Saturday # 472

This is the second Christmas card I made today using the Carols of Christmas stamp set with its coordinating Card Front Builder framelits.

For this card, I used the sketch challenge with Sketch Saturday here


I started with a Cherry Cobbler base and layered it with a piece of Whisper White cardstock embossed with the Holly embossing folder.  I highlighted the Ivy leaves and berries with the Clear Wink of Stella glimmer brush.

The focal image was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink and immediately embossed with Clear Embossing powder.  It was layered with Cherry Cobbler card stock and added to the card front using dimensionals.

Before adhering  the embossed Whisper White layer to the card base, I wrapped some Cherry Cobbler Baker's twine three times around this layer from top to bottom, then tied it together just above the focal image.

Below the focal image dangle some stamped and die cut Christmas ornaments.  I hand drew the strings that the ornaments were tied to.

Supplies Used:
Stamps:  Christmas Carol
Inks:  Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green
Papers:  Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
Accessories:  Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine, Holly Embossing Folder, Clear Wink of Stella glimmer Brush, Dazzling details, dimensionals. Card Front Builder framelits
