Stylin’ Stampin’ INKspiration Challenge

Here I am with another challenge card and I must say this one at Stylin’ Stampin’ INKspiration gave me a chance to step outside my comfort zone. I love the Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper and with it as the starting point, I created my mostly Black and White Christmas card. I embossed Basic Black card using the Oh My Stars Embossing Folder and attached it to scored and folded Thick Whisper White card. I cut a Silver Metallic Foil Doily in half and attached it to the top left hand corner of the embossed card. I cut a strip of the Merry Little Christmas Designer Series paper across the card front, covering the cut edge of the doily. I stamped the greeting from the Merry Little Labels stamp set onto Whisper White card using Archival Black ink. I used an Old Olive Stampin’ Write Marker to add a little colour to the centre of the leaves. I punched a Real Red circle using the Holly Berry Builder Punch and attached it over the stamped holly berries.
I punched the top of the card using the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. The stamped tag is attached to a slightly larger Old Olive tag and then the card front using dimensionals. I tied a knot in a length of Silver 1/8″ Ribbon and attached it to the tag.
I decided that to decorate the inside of the card I would play on the words in the greeting and stamped the row of wine glasses from the Half Full stamp set. In keeping with the black and white I merely stamped in Archival Black ink and didn’t add any colour.
I have a few friends who will appreciate this card, have you?
Bye for now,
Kris

Simple but very elegant Kris, especially with the touch of gold popping out behind the DSP. TFS
