Welcome to the RemARKable 25th Anniversary Best of Blog Tour – hard to believe we’re near the end of these great sets!
The soft color palette in this card provides contrast with the traditional manger scene. It was simple and quite enjoyable to color the vignette with Stampin’ Write markers – I actually did quite a few of these for a craft fair later this month.
I’ve learned to give myself permission to be a little messy with my coloring. That’s a big step for this perfectionist!
All the images in this set are perfectly sized for 3 x 3 gift enclosure cards, but I think this manger works especially well:
Almost the same, and just as easy to do!
Here’s another very traditional holiday image, this time in very traditional colors.
Again, this is a card you could produce very easily as the coloring is simple and then it’s just punch, punch, snip, snip, stamp, tie a knot and send!
I recommend you use the fine point of the Stampin’ Write markers to color the Holly leaves and berries first, then fill in Santa’s cap. I used an Aquapainter with a little Blushing Bride ink for Santa’s face.
