Our last card was the fastest and it was good this time around because the stitching on the first card did take longer than usual. I chose black cardstock for this set and added "starry night" background paper. It is actually gift wrap that my sister bought years ago which is so sparkly and multicoloured - it does starry night really well. The little "peace on earth" was stamped on coloured cardstock (2" x 3") and embossed with silver embossing powder. A coordinating layer was cut to back this one to create our focal element. I provided clear gel pens to colour the dove, earth and leaves. I tried shimmery watercolours on the light pink one and that worked well too!! Quick and easy!!!
So we had a wonderful evening listening to Christmas carols and getting creative which always happens with this group!!! We have very little snow and it has been relatively mild so it hardly feels like we are only three weeks from Christmas!!! It was so nice to spend a creative evening with friends and get started on our Christmas!!! Therese
