Believe


TGIF!

I have another Christmas card today for this week's Merry Monday 97 challenge featuring another one of those stamps  in my not-yet-used-basket, Hero Arts Wreath of Leaves.

I started out by stamping the wreath onto white cardstock in Versamark ink and then heat embossed with silver embossing powder.  I placed several sequins in two shades of aqua and silver sequins centered with aqua jewels onto various spots on the wreath. The sentiment from The Cat's Pajamas Believe set was stamped with Stampin' Up Bahama Bay ink onto a skinny tag that I tied some silver thread through. I wish all my cards came together as easily as this one!


Products: Hero Arts stamp, The Cat's Pajamas stamp, PTI cs, Darice and Lawn Fawn sequins, Kaisercraft jewels, Paper Source thread, Stampendous embossing powder, Stampin' Up and Versamark inks

Have a great weekend!
