Catherine Pooler shared one of her very 'clean & simple' cards over at StampNation - it was way cool so I thought I would have a go at the same layout and idea.
The only 'present' stamp that I have is the one from 'Best of Birthdays' so I did some semi-random stamping on a piece of Whisper White.....I think I need to work on my 'random stamping'...there are too many weird gaps....I'm sure there's a video tutorial somewhere with some tips.
Anyway....here are the cards...
I like the placement of the presents on the card above...but I'm not too sure about the colour choices....I probably should have omitted the snowflakes too.
I like the colour choices on my card above, but there was a gaping white hole on the main panel which I tried to 'fix' with a red candy dot....not sure that I should have done that. :(
Oh well, it was good to try something different. :)
By the way....I'm on Facebook so 'like me'!
Cheers

I like the second one best.... I think the placement of the candy dots works perfectly and the different colours give it more punch.

ReplyDeleteSeemingly random stamping can take a bit of practice eh! BUT, I think you've done great. Love these cute cards especially because they're Christmassy without being over the top. Such fun.
ReplyDeleteJust love these cards they are awesome!!!
