Wintry Merry Christmas ~ Non-Traditional Christmas Colors Card Challenge

November 18, 2021 - by Crystal O Minkler

Wintry Merry Christmas ~ Non-Traditional Christmas Colors Card Challenge

 Hello there crafty friend!
Crystal here from Tawny Owl Paperie with more inspiration for the fun Non-Traditional Christmas Color Card Challenge in the Unity Show & Tell! Today my color combo is browns and bluish-green with just a touch of white.

 

A bit of ink blending on Kraft card stock over the new fabulous Mountain Scapes {stencil} with Vintage Photo, Antique Linen, and Walnut Stain Distress Oxide inks. I stamped the Woodland Layers trees with Forest Moss and Evergreen Bough Distress Oxide inks.

 

A little watermark stamping with a Wow Clear Embossing ink pad and The Christmas Tree background stamp from last month. I distressed the edges with Walnut Stain and Ground Espresso Distress Oxide inks. Added a bit of white acrylic paint splatter and set it aside to dry.

 

Die cut a stitched scalloped frame from Kraft card stock and distressed the edges with Ground Espresso. Adhered my layers and then adhered them to a kraft A2 top fold card base.

 

 I die cut the Merry from the Say It Big Holiday die set from Vellum and Kraft card stock… distressed the kraft die cut a bit the Ground Espresso Distress Oxide ink.

 

Stamped the Christmas sentiment from the Say it Big {Holiday} stamp kit onto Ocean Tides card stock with Wow Clear Embossing ink and melted some Alabaster White embossing powder. I just love the rustic feel of this card! I hope this card inspires you to use some browns in your Christmas card makes! Have you played along with the Non-Traditional Christmas Color Card Challenge over in the Unity Show and Tell group? There’s been some really wonderful card inspiration shared for the challenge. I hope you come join in the fun!

 

Supplies Used:
Mountain Scapes {stencil}
Woodland Layers {stamp set}
The Christmas Tree
Say It Big Holiday stamps
Say It Big Holiday dies

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.
Inky Hugs,
Crystal
