I stamped the Greatest Gift image onto Flourishes Classic White cardstock in very black ink, coloring it in with Copics. After that I fussy cut out the image and placed popdots under it to lift it off the page and give it a 3D, life-like effect. I mounted the image onto a Kraft paper with black foil designs. Then I mounted the design paper onto black cardstock to make the design paper and image pop.
This has to be the quintessential Christmas card image for the ages. Mary is lovingly looking at baby Jesus and Joseph is looking in wonder and love, at his wife, Mary. You cannot get a more beautiful Christmas card image anywhere!

Such beautiful coloring! That blue is just stunning
ReplyDeleteMy Flourish stamps have always been some of my very favorites in my collection. I used many of them in last week's SCS DTGD challenges.
ReplyDeleteI am excited to see some new releases and that they are back up and running.
