Christmas tag with stocking

Hi! Today I made a Christmas tag with a stocking stamp from Clearly Besotted, In stitches Christmas. I inked the edges with distress ink and stamped first and second generation dots on the background. I stamped the stocking with brown and red ink and cut it out leaving a thin white border. I made a little hole in the stocking with a piercing tool and thread a red and white bakerstwine through. This tag is ending up on a present to my mother in law. I love wrapping presents! 🙂 Thanks for stopping by and take care! Challenges : Virginias View challenge, Paper take weekly, Simon Says Stamp, Christmas cards all year round

White winterfox with warm grey shadows

Hi!

Today I made a card for the Lawnscaping challenge. The challenge was white on white, and let me tell you, it is really hard! I stamped the fox with pumic stone distress ink, I wanted the outlines of the image to be soft and not in black. Then I tried to shadow the fox really lightley and focused on the shadow around him. I used two shades of warm grey copics and also added dots with the copics and a white gelpen in the shadows. The greeting is also stamped with pumic stone distress ink. If I should make this card again, I think I would stamp the greeting on the inside instead.

Thanks for stopping by!
