I've worked on the Christmas card above, for some time today. My thumbs are very painful and so it took me ages to get the card together. I haven't used corrugated card on my cards for some time. Several years ago I bought several packs of it from my local $2 Shop. The shop has since closed, which is a shame because I used to buy lot's of craft things from them.
Anyway, I like how the card turned out - in spite of it taking me so long to finish it!
I also made two bookmarks using the Lavinia stamp, "Keeping Faith." I used water colour paper and made the back grounds using some Distress Oxide inks. It wasn't easy to stamp the words on the paper. Maybe I could have used and embossing ink to stamp it? The Versafine stamp pad, although well inked, just wasn't stamping it very well. I used my stamping tool so I could keep inking the stamp, but it was a job! No wonder my thumbs are sore today:-(
Thanks for dropping by, have a SUNSHINE day! {HUGS} from me to YOU:-)
I really like the look of the corrugated paper. I hate losing good sources of craft supplies. So many businesses are closing. The bookmarks look lovely.
