Winter Scarf Owl - Sami Stamps/Incy Wincy

Good evening peeps!

It's a bit late, but I'd like to share with you the Incy Wincy challenge for this week. The theme is non-traditional Christmas, so that means no red or green. Oooer!

Our wonderful sponsor this week is the fantastic Sami Stamps...

Christmas Snowman

Good evening peeps!

I hope you are having a good week so far.

I'd like to show a card I made using a gorgeous Tim Holtz stamp set by Stampers Anonymous. It's called Halftone Christmas. This is one of three cards I made with this set.

What you need...

Stamps: Tim Holtz Collection Halftone Christmas (CMS204) - Stampers Anonymous

Patterned paper: Bundled Up 6"x6" Paper Pad - Carta Bella

Card stock: white

Ink pads: Onyx Black - Versafine; Aquamarine - Avery Elle

Rub-on: Merry Christmas, black

Adhesives

What you do...

Create a white top fold A6 blank and cover the bottom with a circle of aqua diamond paper. Trim any excess.

Stamp random snowflakes in black and add a rub-on sentiment to the top of the blank.

Stamp the halftone part of the snowman in Aquamarine ink and over stamp the outline detail in black.

Cut out and mat onto the left of the blank.

There you go, a quick and simple Christmas card! I had such fun with this set - so retro!

Thank you for stopping by and I'll be back soon with another card to show you. TTFN xx
