Rustic Christmas

Hello. Playing in the CAS(e) this sketch #399 today. 

Pine cone/fir stamp is a big background stamp from Simon Says Stamp, that I colored with Copic's. I used a fishtail banner to cut part of it and saved the rest of it for later. I've had the plaid designer paper in my Christmas stash forever, so I thought it would be fun to use it on this and call it "rustic" since I used a lot of rustic products. 

The sentiment is from Hero Arts and I used the new rustic wilderness distress oxide ink and glaze on the vellum. I stuck tiny gold pearls in the corners to hide the glue.  Rustic white cardstock from PTI is used for the base. See the rustic theme, here? LOL

Thanks for stopping in.

Thinking of you

Hello. Playing in the CAS(e) this sketch challenge today. I turned the sketch so that the die cut sentiment would fit.

I used watercolor paper and oxide inks to create the colorful background. I used a grid background stamp from MFT and added on top using white unicorn pigment ink from Hero Arts.  Splashed and splattered some additional oxide ink around to finish it off.  Added the sentiment which is die cut several times and stacked up. Added some sparkle with a wink of stella pen.

Have a great weekend!
