Making Spirits very Bright

September 27, 2019

Hello!

I really do like taking in part in challenges but sometimes time is tight so I’ve killed 2 birds with the 1 stone and made a card that meets the brief for both a Colour Challenge and a Sketch Challenge.

Both challenges were set in Amanda Charlesworth’s Facebook Group “Stampin’ For All”. Ian Potter gave us this sketch to work with on Monday…

And Amanda gave us these 3 colours to work with on Wednesday…

Lovely Lipstick
Mango Melody
Pool Party

Now these colours don’t immediately say “Christmas” but they’re certainly a nice bright combination so I pulled out the Making Christmas Bright stamp set from the 2019/2020 Annual Catalogue to create this card…

My card base is Whisper White card measuring 21 x 14.5 cm, scored and folded on the long side at 10.5 cm. I added a layer of Pool Party card that measures 10.2 x 14.2 cm and a layer of Mango Melody card that measures 9.5 x 13.5 cm.

I stamped the circular image from the Making Spirits Bright set using Lovely Lipstick ink onto Whisper White card and added the stars with Pool Party and Mango Melody ink. I mounted this with Lovely Lipstick card.

I stamped the sentiment with all 3 colours and used my snips to trim down the 3 words I wanted and backed them with small pieces of card to coordinate (or maybe clash, lol!)

I stamped the strings of fairy lights in Memento Ink onto strips of Whisper White card and coloured the bulbs. I also added some Wink Of Stell to the bulbs for a little bit of shimmer.

I hope this card has brightened your day!

I’ve listed the products I’ve used below and you can click on the links to shop in my friend Valerie’s online Stampin’ Up! store.

Happy crafting,
