I don't know how old this Stampin Up! collage stamp is, but when I found it at a thrift store, unused, I knew it would make gorgeous cards. So new to me...and first time out...I picked it to use in the VSN 'Holiday Stories' challenge DEC18VSNA 'A Christmas Carol'. Misty asked us to portray our favorite carol. Mine is Silent Night. And the first verse is part of this wonderful stamp.
I used Archival ink to get perfect coverage with such intricate details. Embossing with clear. That allowed me to use the Gellatos. I love rubbing on the colors. The holly berries and the Poinsettias were colored with Copics. I added gold seed beads in the centers of the flowers for dimension. The word LOVE was placed in the elegant bracket (a Wendy Vecchi for Stampers Anonymous).
Thanks for stopping by...wishing you Silent Nights and a Joyful Christmas season.
