Hello & Happy Thursday!
I’m sharing a super clean and simple Christmas card today. It is one that could easily be used for a variety of occasions, in case you have finished your Christmas cards for this year!
I’ve been meaning to use this The Greetery Put A Bow On It stamp set and the coordinating Put A Bow On It die, but as I’d tidied up my desk I’d forgotten where I had put them.
I started by creating a simple mask of 4 squares/rectangles to be able to ink the ribbon strips to make my mat layer and base card look like a ribbon wrapped gift. You could use a solid stripe sentiment or stencil if you have them in your stash!
I then stamped the bow in Concord & 9th Poppy ink and the detail bow shading in Concord & 9th Cranberry ink. As you can see I opted for the Merry Christmas sentiment.
I have to say with my normal stamp priming of using a pencil eraser, this bow stamped beautifully and I didn’t have to use a stamp positioner to re-stamp or even stamp the detail. It was also really easy to die cut.
I hope I have given you another last minute Christmas card design and that your Christmas card making & sending is going better than mine!
Until next week.
