Monochrome for A Blog Named Hero

When I made this card, I had absolutely no ideas. I was on a Zoom call with some crafty friends in the USA, so I got them to choose some random numbers. I used one to choose the background stamp, one to choose the stamp and cut set, and one to choose the colour I used. This is what I came up with:

And, of course, because I cut the panel down, I got two cards for the price of one! YAY!

Challenge me a Christmas Card with Betty Keefe

Welcome to "Challenge me a Christmas Card" for 2018!

My guest today is Betty Keefe, and she has challenged me to make a card using the eclipse technique. You can check out her take on this challenge HERE.

Here's what I came up with:

I made a watercolour panel by stamping and embossing ornament stamps from Newton's Nook and colouring them with Zig markers and water. I then used a die from Papertrey Ink to cut the word "peace" and also cut it from 4 pieces of pale grey cardstock. I layered these up onto a white cardbase, and adhered the coloured die cut on the top, and replaced the little bits from the middle of the letters. I put some Stardust Stickles on the top, then added a white embossed sentiment from Simon Says Stamp "Tiny Words Christmas" on a thin black strip.

 I will be sharing this card at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, where the theme is "Anything Goes".
