Hi everyone! Today I would like to share a couple of collage Christmas cards with you. I tend to lean toward clean lines most of the time so it was fun to try something a bit new and out of my comfort zone.
For my first card I distressed all the edges with scissors and created a tag. On the tag, I first stamped
Light of Christmas bg with red ink but stamping off once before stamping on the tag. Next I used the
Snowflake flourish set and stamped the flourish over the bg with red ink as well. Finally, I stamped my image from
Old Fashioned Christmas with black ink.
For my second card I followed the same first two steps as for my first card only using brown ink with the
Light of Christmas bg and
Snowflake flourish set. The final stamp I used for my collage is one of my favorites-
Vintage Ornaments which was stamped with twilight ink. I also distressed all the edges with scissors just like on my first card.
I hope that I have inspired you today to create your own collage cards. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
