Good morning! Have we all recovered from Thanksgiving/Black Friday? I hope so! I had a very nice day yesterday. I went to the movies with my friends Kim and Heather and then we all had some lunch and just hung around and chatted. Heather and I ran to the Body Shop because they had 3 for $30 and I love the Body Shop. Some Starbucks to round out the evening made it a great day!
For today’s post I made a Christmas card that I created on chevron Friday as I will call it. The base of the card is Very Vanilla Card Stock. I stamped a piece of Very Vanilla with the Daydream Medallions Stamp Set in Primrose Petals and Real Red. The Real Red is real hidden as the strips of the Festival of Prints Designer Series Paper Stack cover most of it. I paired the DSP with some First Edition Specialty Designer Series Paper. Both are cut out in a chevron pattern. Before adhering them to the base I used the Simply Scored Scoring tool to score some lines around the edges. The ornament is from the Keepsake Ornaments Stamp Set and is stamped in Primrose Petals and cut out with the Holiday Ornaments Framelits Collection. I used some Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere it to the card. The greeting is from the Family Reunion Stamp Set and is stamped in Real Red. I often forget that there are some other stamps in there besides the family ones! I love the chevron pattern over the stamped image and the simplicity of the large ornament. I hope that you enjoyed today’s card. I appreciate your visiting with me and I hope that you enjoy the rest of your weekend. 🙂
