Paper Playhouse: Peace {MFTWSC113}

It's time to get sketchy with the MFT Wednesday Stamp Club and sketch 113.

I went the Christmas card route and created card #5 for Project Christmas 2013 using Inspired By Christmas.

I started with a card base of Whip Cream then added a layer of Kraft and a layer of Sno Cone. The patterned paper is from the Carta Bella Winter Fun collection and I inked the edges with Kraft Premium Dye Ink. I was going to use some ribbon for the strip across the middle but then I remembered I had some burlap and I thought it would tie in nicely with the soft colours I was using.

I used the Circle 1 STAX Die-namics to cut out the Kraft circle then I stamped the sleigh image with white craft ink and embossed it with white powder. I inked around the edges of the circle to soften it a little.

I used the Fishtail Flags Layers STAX Die-namics to cut out the Whip Cream strip then stamped the sentiment with Kraft Premium Dye Ink. I ran it through the same die a second time to trim the straight end into a flag. I used the medium size of the Let It Snowflake Die-namics to cut out the patterned paper snowflake.

On the inside I stamped a sentiment from Clearly Sentimental about Christmas.
