October Stamp of the Month Blog Hop - Holiday Magic

We are hopping again!

You should be coming from Pamela's Blog, if not, keep hopping and you will do a complete circle.

This month's stamp set is 

Holiday Magic

 

 I love these images!

This first card I was trying to do something soft and simple. 

I layered the sleigh and used foam squares. 

 I have Sparkles on the tree and corner of the card.

I second generation stamped snowflakes so that they are barely there

  If you click on the photo above you might be able to see the spritzed Create-A-Shade Paint 

that I added to a Spray Pen with a quarter of a tube of alcohol. It should be very shimmery. 

Must shake VERY well to mix the paint and alcohol.

 I sponged Crystal Blue ink at the bottom for the snow
and then I sponged around the whole card in Chocolate ink to distress it.

 This next card I wanted to take a shape and create something totally different than what it is - so the Christmas Tree was used to create a background stamped image.

 I stamped the stocking in Cotton Candy and the paper/green stamping is Pear Ink.

I added waxy flax for the top of the stocking and inside the button for the threads.

 Some soft pastel buttons finish off the card.

Thanks for looking!

Now hop over to Sarita's Blog to see some more great artwork with this stamp set!
