Somehow it’s already the 14th of the month and it is new release day at Picket Fence Studios! I’ve started my monthly showcase with this gorgeous stamp illustrated by Kelly Taylor. I’ve loved her stuff for years and I’m so happy to finally colour up one of her stamps. This one is called Candy Cane Christmas and it is not the only one in this release! I opted for classical Christmas colours and made a fun mashup background for the card. You know I love those!
The background is made up of a green distressed background with the Slim Line Plaid One stencil on top before using the Hark, the Angels Sing to add the text on the background. Then I had fun making some splatter with the new Liquid White Snowflake Paper Splatter Watercolor. Then used some of the lush green sequins from the Holiday Stockings sequin mix for the finishing touches.
I am particularly pleased with how the bow turned out, but the whole card is among my favourites this year.
And we need a close-up, too, right?
