Happy Tuesday ya'll!! Here's another card I made with the newly released "Spirit of Christmas" set by Anna Wight, from Whipper Snapper Designs. This set couldn't have been more perfect for me. Remember ALL those Christmas cards I needed to get done? I've lost count on where I am but I know this set has really helped push me towards my goal. Yay!!
I wanted to try stamping this image onto some canvas and it worked perfectly. I used my Momento Tuxedo Black ink pad and colored the image with my Copics. To make the canvas a little more stiff and easier to work with, I adhered it to a piece of card stock and then frayed the edges before adding it to the card base. The card base is from We R Memory Keepers and to finish it off, I tied this SU taffeta ribbon around the bottom with a button in the middle. Simple but SUPER DUPER cute, huh?
Love it!

I really like the patriotic santa, I also like the fabric frayed around it. Great job! Marsha
ReplyDeleteThis is darling! Great card for this vintage-like Santa! May I ask more about the canvas? I am a cross-stitcher and wonder what kind of fabric you are using. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely WONDERFUL!!

OMG, should be working, but here I am...shhhh, don't tell....gonna add you tonight and drool in private! :) welcome to the sistahood!! This card is awesome by the way..love the look and the layout.
ReplyDeleteSo cute - I love it! (hmmmm, I may have to get this stamp set)
ReplyDeleteHi Cheryl!
ReplyDeleteWell, my aunt gave me this canvas years ago when she cleaned out her craft room. I believe she used it for making dolls. It's an entire bolt of fabric and it's really wide and heavy too. I would think that it was meant for duffle bags and things of that sort. It's not waterproof or anything but it is somewhat stiff, almost like denim. I've cross-stitched in the past as well and it does sort of remind me of Aida cloth in weight, but it's not an open weave. Ok, I hope that helps. Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving me comments. I DO love to read them.

Hi Paula,
You're too funny! I love Anna's stamps, coloring, pictures, you name it! I just thinks she's awesome!
Actually, the blog banner was done by Freckled and Fun, aka Beth Silaika. I LOVE chickens and I think she did a FABBY job! Thanks SO much for the sweet comments. *double grin*
Have a great day!

LOVE the canvas idea. The frayed edges add that flair. Looks great on the striped paper. Ho Ho Ho!
ReplyDeleteI love it, the canvas is such a nice touch.

OMG! Your santa is Way to cool!
ReplyDeleteIsn't this cloth for counted cross stitch? Stamping has endless opportunities, just let your imagination run! Great Job! I am bookmarking your site, you work is outstanding!
