Happy New Year, friends! It's time to start again at House of Cards, and this month we are asking you to add a building to your card or be inspired by our color scheme...
I decided I was inspired by both! I did some fun sponging, water coloring, and layering of die cuts to create a winter scene. Take a peek at my card...
I used some fun polka dot paper to create my "sky", then added a few snowflake sequins. The mountains were sponged with dark brown ink to give a little bit of depth, and the buildings and trees were water colored. I added some ribbon as an anchor--I LOVE that gingham!
I added a scallop border and some rhinestones below the scene to add texture and shine. The sentiment I chose could work for Christmas or just a generic winter card!
This card totally turned out differently than I originally planned, but I LOVE it! I hope you think it's cute, too! I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below! :)
Thanks so much for stopping by today, friends! I hope you take a bit of time to come and play along with us at House of Cards. Don't forget to stop by the other DT members' blogs for even MORE amazing inspiration--they always blow me away! I'll be back later this month with more crafty posts! Until then, HUGS and happy stamping, friends! :)
