Hello Friends! It's Diane with you today on the Classy Cards 'n Such blog.
After making more involved cards lately, I decided to share with you an easy card today. Easy, but it still packs a punch so to speak.
After making more involved cards lately, I decided to share with you an easy card today. Easy, but it still packs a punch so to speak.
I started out with a 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" white card stock. I added color using the 2011 Winter Seasonal Ink Pads by Tim Holtz. I sponged Spun Sugar on first, then Evergreen Bough below.
Using a black ink I stamped an image from Country Time Christmas by Flourishes on top of the sponged ink. I like how it gives a soft, muted look to the card front.
I went over various parts of the trees with a Sakura Gelly Roll Stardust Clear Pen, giving a bit of shimmer to all the trees.
I used 1/2" Scor-Tape to mount the card front to a black piece of card stock, and 1/2" Scor-Tape once again to mount the piece to the front of my card.

To add a bit of texture, I cut my deer from cork, using a die from Memory Box called Deer Trio, only using the doe and fawn. I used the Sakura Gelly Roll Stardust Clear Pen to make a few spots on the fawn.
To finish the card I added a bit of Doodle Twine, tied on a bead. Just these few steps for a fast and pretty holiday card.
I wanted to mention the Country Time Christmas stamp set has several beautiful Christmas sentiments included with it, which will help making your Christmas cards quick and easy.
