 Hello and thanks for visiting!

A few months back at my Christmas in July Customer Appreciation event we made a card with Shimmery White cardstock.  I decided to mix it up, change the colours slightly, fussy cut the sentiment and add an extra pup!

Do you ever revisit a card you love and change it up to create a slightly different version.  Its amazing how many variations you can create from one stamp set, with or without dies simply by changing the colours and sentiment.

***  The Trix  ***

* Brush the Shimmery White cardstock, #101910 with with a Water Painter, #151298 before adding the Parakeet Party coloured trees.  I used the Trees for Sale Stamp Set, #159785.  Then add in the Shaded Spruce detailed trees.  The colour bleeds slightly on the Shimmery White and gives a neat effect.

*  Keep the sentiment in the centre of the card, but change the colour to Polished Pink.  Cut the sentiment strip apart, add in a second die cut image and embellish with your favourite gems.  I used retired  2021 - 2023™ In Color Jewels to match the Polished Pink sentiment.

A Simple Watercolour for #rrcb197 & #tgifc397

 Hello and thanks for visiting!

Today's card is inspired by a couple of challenges and a couple of old favourite stamp sets.  I loved the greenery in the inspiration photo over @ Retro Rubber Challenge Blog and the Colour Challenge over @ TGIF Challenges.  Use Shaded spruce, Granny Apple Green & Real Red, a super colour combo that's bright and fresh for Christmas!  Please click the hyperlinks to visit their blog posts and enjoy the inspiration!

The retired Watercolor Christmas inspired me to watercolour the leaves of the Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set, the colours are awesome together.  Both of these stamp sets were available  between 2018 & 2020 I think?  Currently the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack, #150647 is available in the Clearance Rack section of my online store.  It matches the Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set.  

***  The Trix ***

*  Stamp the holly leaves with Shaded Spruce ink on Basic White cardstock.  *Trix, lightly watercolour with Water Painters, #151298 picking up Granny Apple Green ink from the lid of the ink pad.  Just dab the colour and water on the centre of the leaf and let it bleed slightly.  We're not using Thick Cardstock or Watercolour Paper here so dab lightly and let the colours blend naturally.

*  Lightly colour the berries with a Real Red Stampin' Blend Marker.  Swirl the colour on the berries and take care not to blend the Real Red with the Shaded Spruce outline.  

*  Stamp the sentiment and die cut the circle with the Stylish Shapes Dies, #159183, adhere with dimensionals.  Stamp another holly leaf, colour, fussy cut out and overlap it on the die cut circle using dimensionals under the leaves only.   Embellish with Red Rhinestones Basic Jewels, #146294
