Christmas Peace


http://rainy.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/ This is the site where I CASED the design for this card. Only she used acetate over the surface and as I didn't have any I did things a little differently. This is a situation that demonstrates any card can usually be saved when you think all is lost. I got all the sponging and stamping done and ran it through the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder, UPSIDE DOWN, so the dots were inverted on the right side. So I patiently covered each little dot with Stickles Frosted Lace. Up close it sort of looks like rain coming down!!! But it saved the card. Used Ballet Blue, Bashful Blue, Almost Amethyst and Sage Shadow for the sponging above a torn edge of scrap on Whisper White and stamped image and sentiment in Basic Black. Matted on Black SU CS.

Very pretty! I have done the same thing with the embossing folder...great coverup, and no one would ever had known if you hadn't told us! I think the Stickles looks like snow!!!
