I am about to mention the C word….Christmas. It is fast approaching, It feels just like last week was January and yet we are already midway through August !
I love working with the smaller stamps that come with a lot of stamp sets and often think they are really over looked. Today I have created a card using the candy cane stamps that are part of the Sweet Holiday Stamp set which is being retired and is on sale ! So grab a bargain.
I started off stamping and heat embossing the sentiment onto some Ranger Kraft card. I then took the candy cane stamps and mounted them onto my stamping block and randomly stamped them across the card panel.
Once I was happy I then coloured them using Polychromo coloured pencils and added some detail with white gel pen.
I then used the Dotted Patterns Scallop Frame and die cut the whole piece out and adhered it to a red card base.
I decided it needed something a bit more so I added some of the Silver Foil Crystals.
There is something I love about red, white & kraft as a color combo, especially for holiday cards.
What’s your favourite holiday card colour combination ?
Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you have a great day.
Happy Crafting.

How yummy are those candy canes that look as though they’re popping off the page! Fabulous festive!

This card is adorable! I love all things Christmas and I’m just starting my cards for this year. Thanks for the inspiration, this will certainly be in my cards this year 🙂 I have not tried Kraft yet but I just bought some so I’m thinking I’m going to love Red and White on Kraft LOL.
Awesome candy canes. Love the look and layout. Really awesome card and love the colors. Kraft is such an awesome color and it’s perfect for this card background. Love your card.
