This week’s Pals Paper Arts challenge is a sketch by Kerry Willard Bray.
Here’s the sketch…
…and here’s my card.
The Festive Fireplace stamp set and Festive Fireside Framelits Dies are available in a bundle in the new Holiday catalog. I’ve used them here along with another new product: the Winter Wonderland Designer Vellum Stack – 36 sheets of 6″ x 6″ vellum in 12 different designs. I thought this design looked like wallpaper.
I should mention that, except for the 5″ x 7″ card base and the vellum, all the paper I used on this card came from my scraps. I save all my paper scraps, and have a small drawer for each color. I’ve been ribbed for keeping scraps as small as I do, but that skinny piece of Whisper White certainly came in handy for the baseboard, and it prevented having to cut into a new piece.
I used Stampin’ Write Markers to color the flames (Pumpkin Pie,) the wreath berries (Real Red,) and the stockings (1 – Soft Sky, Mint Macaron, and Lost Lagoon; 2 – Crumb Cake and Soft Suede; 3 – So Saffron, Real Red, and Garden Green.)
Here are the current products I used:
