happy holidays
This is the final card that I created for the September Papertrey Ink release using the new Tree with Trimmings stamp set and the Background Basics: Christmas stamp set. Both are such fun sets! I love creating backgrounds so I've been having fun with the new Christmas background stamps. The kraft patterned paper was stamped using stamps from the set and pure poppy and ripe avocado inks. I sponged some spring rain ink around the edge of my white circle while it was still in the nestability die. A fun and easy technique that helps highlight the image and sentiment.
This card is now posted in my etsy store: Apple Blossom Paperie. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!! Thanks so much for stopping by!
