A Merry & Bright Card by Jessica!

- Nancy Krueger 2 Comments

Good morning! Jess here with a card for our current Color Inspiration challenge!

I decided to pull pretty literally from the inspiration photo and palette for my clean and simple holiday card! First I die-cut the Forest Border from Lawn Fawn Raspberry, Sunflower, Cilantro, Mermaid, and Sugarplum cardstock! I alternated them and adhered them together to create a happy forest of rainbow trees! I adhered them to a white card base and then added a stitched white frame over trees to hide the cut edges!

Next I stamped the sentiment from Merry Messages onto black cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat-embossed it with white embossing powder. I trimmed it down to a label and adhered it at an angle on the panel. And, of course, I can’t leave a card with no sparkles so I added a little liquid glue to the tops of the trees and sprinkled them with Chunky and Prisma glitter to finish the card!

And that’s it! You have one more weekend to get crafty and I can’t wait to see what you create! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
