Have you dug out your woolly hat and gloves yet???...
I have, but only in stamp form as it's much too mild here still for the real thing :)
For my DT blog post at Make the Day Special Stamp Store this week, I shared a winter's birthday card using a couple of stamp sets from Wplus9... Holiday Cheer and Background Builders: Knit..... they're perfect together :)
I love how the textured card adds to the 'knitted' effect and the stamping isn't perfect but that kinda adds to it too.... that's what I'm telling myself anyhow ;)
I used the outline of the hat and mitts on the same card and added some colour with the matching solid stamps and a small pattern from the knit background set. I kept the design simple so as not to cover too much of the knitted backdrop :)
Sentiment is from an Avery Elle and Lil'inkers stamp set, double stitched rectangle is from My Favourite Things :)
Thanks for stopping by :)

I love this card! The colors are awesome! Love the knit background for the mitten/hat focal!
ReplyDeleteWhat die did you use for the blue focal panel? I love the double stitch lines!
ReplyDeleteHi Karen h, the die is from a set by MFT, apologies for missing it out of my blog post... I've added a link to a UK stockist in my blog post now :)

So warm and cosy looking, Jenny ... so snuggly! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteI love this card. The colour is beautiful x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!! That knitted background is so cool and the colours you used are just perfect for the theme. My favourite bit is the tiny hugs tag. :)
ReplyDeleteWe've had about 2 days so far this fall that might have needed a wooly hat but that's about it. At least it's cool enough to break out the flannel pajamas at night! :D
