Deck the Halls Cards with Audrey and Vanessa

Hello friends! Audrey here, and today, I'm decking the halls! 

To create my card, I started off with a piece of watercolor paper cut 4" x 5.25". I used Distress ink in the shades Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn and Rustic Wilderness to watercolor a background on the top left of the card, leaving white space at the bottom and along the right edge. I usually stamp the sentiment on my card last, but this time, I knew I wanted in to fit in the white area, so I stamped it first. The sentiment and images from the adorable Deck the Halls stamp set.

I colored three ornaments from the set, and die cut them with the coordinating Deck the Halls dies. To hang then, I threaded some silver cord from my stash through the hole that the die creates in each ornament, and wrapped it over the top edge of the panel, securing it on the back side with Scotch tape. I popped each ornament up with foam tape. To fill in the area behind them, I die cut three of the Lacy Snowflakes from white cardstock and glued them to the background with a glue pen. 

Before popping the panel up on an A2 card base, I added a strip of candy cane striped paper from the All is Bright 6x6 paper pad to the left edge of the card front. To finish off the card, I added some white gel pen accents, Stardust Stickles and some extra snowflakes using white Nuvo Drops.

Hello to you! Vanessa here today with a Christmas card using the cute Deck The Halls set.

For the background, I inked the white panel with Cracked Pistachio, Lucky Clover and Pine Needles Distress Oxide Inks. Then I stamped the tree branches, stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment, added gold ink droplets and adhered the panel to the card. 

Stamps and dies used:
Deck the Halls stamps + dies
Holiday Style stamps
Christmas Trimmings stamps

Now I stamped the images, colored them with Copic markers, die-cut the pieces with the matching dies and adhered everything with foam tape. Finally, I added the string with a black marker.

One Christmas card done, only a hundred to go :) Have a wonderful weekend everybody! Thanks for stopping by!
