And another non Christmas stamp Christmas card.

Here's the second of three cards that I made at Chris's yesterday
making a Christmas card with a non Christmas stamp.


A very quick and easy card to make -
Colour combo is Night of Navy, Soft Sky and White.
I used Delicate Doilies stamp set, inked the images in Versamark 
and then heat embossed them with White embossing powder.
I then inkdusted over the paper with Night of navy and Soft Sky ink.
I then buffed up the card with a paper towel,
which took off the excess ink and made the white pop out.
The Sentiment is from Greetings of the Season stamp set and I inked
one of the doily images up with Soft Sky.
Simple white grosgrain ribbon, fastened with a knot completes the card.
Love it!!
