Welcome back to Magenta Super Saturday – thank you for visiting today. I have a fun Christmas card for you today.
To create today’s card, I began by cutting a piece of white
cardstock to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”. I used a
blending brush to cover the cardstock with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide
ink. Next, I blended Salty Ocean
Distress Oxide around the outer edge, approximately 1” from each side. Last, I blended Chipped Sapphire Distress
Oxide along the very edge of the cardstock.
I set the piece aside to dry thoroughly because the next step involves
embossing powder.
After the cardstock was dry, I placed it in my MISTI and used my powder tool liberally over the entire surface. I positioned the Leafy Wreath stamp on the cardstock, then used Bundled Sage Distress Ink to stamp it. I left the stamp and cardstock in place and used Tombow markers directly on the stamp.
I began by using red shades on the berries – I colored the berries on the stamp, then stamped and repeated until I was happy with the color of the berries.
I followed the same process for the leaves by coloring the leaves with three different shades of green. I began with a light green and then added dark green accents. I did a few leaves at a time until I was happy with the results.
Leaving the stamp in the MISTI, I cleaned it thoroughly, then
used Versamark to stamp the wreath again.
I embossed the wreath with clear embossing powder. I positioned the sentiment stamp in the
center, stamped with VersaMark, then embossed with gold embossing powder. To finish, I made a mask of the stamp, placed
it over the wreath then splattered gold paint over the open areas.
