One week to Christmas! That means today is the 4th Sunday in Advent - and the waiting is almost over. Today I am sharing a card using products from Stamp Simply, with a quote from Martin Luther:
I tend to make very few red and green Christmas cards, because I love pink so much. While the pink candle would have been last week in the Advent wreath, pink is the liturgical color for joy. I also find it interesting that pink is the color in the academic world that represents an advanced degree in music (and I have the honor of having that in Choral Conducting!). Music, joy, glad tidings!
I embossed the Floral Cluster in White Embossing Powder and lightly blended a light pink ink over the top. I embossed a second, and blended a darker pink ink, then cut out just the flower. Two sprigs were cut from the Gold Cardstock (I know they look green, but really are gold!). I layered it all on my card base, which had a lightly blended partial Lace Stencil for the background with the sentiment stamped in black. A strip of silver glitter cardstock and sequins were added here and there for sparkle.
I love how it turned out. You can see more about this project, and the products I used on the Stamp Simply Blog today!Stamp Simply Supplies:
