I’m trying to build up my Christmas card stash at every opportunity I get and sometimes it’s fun to make a card with no stamping and don’t you think that sponging is rather relaxing. The current challenge over at AAA Cards #102 is all about ink blending and inspired my card.
To create my scene, I masked off a circle to represent the moon and then used inks from Stamping Up to sponge the night sky. I die cut the sleigh and trees and placed them over the sky piece and I was done.
It’s not a traditional CAS card but maybe the night sky gives the illusions of white space?
Ingredients:
- Inks – Stampin Up Night of Navy, Dapper Denim Soft Sky, & Basic Black
- Misc. – Santa Sleigh die, Christmas tree die & star sequins
- Cardstock – Stampin Up Basic Black & Whisper White
Thanks for looking and have a great day.
