Welcome back! Happy Sunday. Hoping you will have a chance to be creative today.
Today, I created a simple little holiday card.
I am playing with: Double Trouble (#228) and the 3-2-1 Recipe: Three Doodles, Two Layers, and One Sentiment; Partnering with Try A Sketch on Tuesday (#708) for the Layout; and choosing Facebook’s Colour INKspiration (#220) Palette substituting Crushed Curry for Darling Duckling.



Here is the result, with some inspiration from Pinterest:

Steps:
- Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Crushed Curry cardstock.
- Card Front: (4¼” x 5½”) Basic White cardstock.
- The Hills, Trees and Star images were lightly sketched with a Pencil.
- Using a Blending Brush, Cajun Craze ink was lightly applied to the Hills.
- The Trees were colored with the Light and Dark Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends Markers.
- The Star was colored with the retired Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blendabilities Marker (still in my collection).
- Using the Black Stampin’ Up Journaling Pen, the Hills, Trees and Star Doodles were defined and then the pencil marks were erased.
- The sentiment, Joy to the World, from the retired Hearts Come Home stamp set was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
- The Card Front was then die-cut with the (3¾” x 5⅛”) Rectangle die from the retired Deckled Rectangles Dies set.
- Additional Doodles were added around the Card Front after it was adhered to the card base.
And that is a wrap!

Thanks for spending some of your time with me today. Cheers, Jolanda!
