Janeen has chosen a fun challenge this week using the Direct To Paper technique. I use this technique quite a lot. On this card I just pressed the ink pad onto the c/s and really like the end result for the bg to my Christmas ornament. I used some red star dp with a gold overlay for the ornament and die cut the sentiment and bow using the red star dp.
On looking at the card, now that I have uploaded it, I see that I need to straighten the word, Christmas - that's what I get for enjoying a glass of red wine while making a card!!! It is after 6.00pm after all!!!
TFL!

A little RED wine is good for you. The RED ornament is good for me! What a pretty card, Sue.

Sue, I like how your pad stamped ink turned out with a lot of white still left....it highlights your lovely ornament on this very pretty CAS Christmas card.

Your Christmas ornament being the star of the show took our eyes of any perceived "not straight" sentiment! LOVE how you did the background and the color you chose! Beautiful card Sue, WELL done...
