Deck the Halls with Inky Paws Blog Hop | Newton’s Nook Designs

Today is the Newton’s Nook Designs Deck the Halls with Inky Paws Blog Hop!  You should have arrived here from my teamie, Maria Russell‘s blog.  If not, you’ll want to start at the beginning of the hop which is the Newton’s Nook Designs Blog.

I created today’s card using the Poinsettia Blooms stamp set. They are my current floral obsession!

I started by stamping (and leaving the stamp in my stamp positioner) the largest image from the Poinsettia Blooms stamp set with a light copic friendly ink. I colored it using the following copic markers :

reds : R29, 39, 59, 89
yellow : Y15, 17
greens : [G28, 29] [G21, 24]

After I was done coloring I placed the image back in the stamp positioner and embossed it using gold embossing powder and fussy cut it out.

Using a stitched die cut edge, I cut out little strips from the Meowy Christmas Paper Pad, and added them in a woven pattern on a A2 card front that I dry embossed using the Snowfall Stencil. After I embossed I realized I cannot add a sentiment on the card front directly, so instead I embossed it in gold on to black card stock and and fussy cut around it.

As always I finished off the card using some jewels.
