Good morning, today sees the start of our Christmas Challenge
anything Christmas themed goes!
I used an Aall and Create stamp set which I bought last year and never got around to using (they do have some amazing bargains in their clearance sales and I tend to get a bit carried away!)
The trees are individual stamps, so a lot of masking went on to stamp this little 'forest'.
I've used watercolours and gel pens to colour, the stamped embossed sentiment is from another A&C set and the tiny stars around the edge are Lavinia.
There's more to see over at Fab'n'Funky where my lovely team have created some beautiful cards for you to enjoy, I hope you can find some time during these bust two weeks to join in.
I'm going to be missing for a few days after today- I'm off to Edinburgh for a few days, somewhere I've always wanted to visit, looking forward to it so much!
Thanks for visiting
Chris

ReplyDeleteGoodness, Chris, this is MARVELOUS! I love your little forest, and I can appreciate all the masking work - stunning result! Thanks so much for playing at Make My Monday!
ReplyDeleteGreat masking Chris, I honestly thought it was all one stamps.
ReplyDeleteNothing nasty showed up today and at moment put down to depression and missing Holly. She did eat today (sausages to tempt her) which was a bonus.

Beautiful colouring of those lovely trees Chris. A lovely Christmas card. Enjoy your time away. xx
ReplyDeleteA lovely happy card and well done on all the masking. Enjoy Edinburgh, such a great city.
ReplyDeleteThe masking work on these tree stamps is so skillfully done, creating such a natural little forest. The mix of watercolors and gel pen accents brings wonderful depth, and the tiny stars around the edge add a magical finishing touch.
ReplyDeleteI try to avoid their emails as too tempting Chris. You picked a winner here though and it makes for a lovely Christmas card.
