Another CAS card, this time I'm fast forwarding to the festive season with a Christmas card.
I used the Sweet Poppy "Aperture Circle Stencil" with "Library Green" Ranger Archival Ink to create the shaded partial circle.
I used Versafine Clair "Rain Forest" dark green ink to stamp the Sweet Poppy "Botanicals Holly Sprigs" stamp. I coloured the leaves using three shades of Derwent Inktense pencils, applied with a brush. I added "A Wink of Stella" to the leaves to give a beautiful subtle gold shimmer to them.
A red Posca Pen was ideal for colouring the berries. I added white highlights with a gel pen to the leaves and the berries.
Next, I stamped the sentiment, which is part of the Sweet Poppy "Festive Phrases" stamp set, stamped in Versafine Clair "Tulip Red" ink.
Finally, I added splatters of white paint using a fan shaped paint brush to replicate snow flakes.
Love your holly stamp and layout on your CAS card

DeleteThis holly sprig looks wonderful Sam and the light partial inking of the circle with the red sentiment and the white spattering for snow looks great.
