Clare set the challenge of three of a kind and I had been wanting to use this stamp for ages. The image is a Lavinia stamp which has been sat in its packaging for a couple of months! The background distressing is with
memento inks danube blue and paris dusk and santa is stamped in tuxedo black. Sentiment is from a popcorn and friends christmas and birthday kit.
I used low tack masking tape to tape a section and then faced my arch nemesis - DISTRESSING! No matter how many times I do it I always forget and go straight to the card/paper, hopefully it just likes like a mix of midnight colours!
I will be entering this card into the following challenges;
Crazy Christmas Challenge - no red or green
Use it Tuesday - uninked stamp (santa)
Creative Inspirations - anything goes
Charisma Cardz - sky
Cute Card Thursday - anything goes
Alphabet Challenge - q for quick and simple
Secret Crafter Saturday - one layer card
Cutie Sunday - christmas cards
