Seasonally Scattered Christmas Greetings from Stampin' Up! UK Independent Demonstrator Sarah Poulton


Happy Monday Crafters!

How was your weekend? It was a rainy, thundery and windy one here on the Isle of Wight. Perfect for crafting weather. I tucked myself up to craft in my craft room and then realised some of my cardstock was damp. So one thing led to another and I ended up having a tidy up and a bit of a move around. It certainly is tidier but there is still a long way to go (I always end up preferring to craft than to organise!)

Today's crafty share is a project we made in last month's card class. I love the baby wipe technique. It is so effective. And I especially love the dimensional look it gives the Seasonally Scattered stamps. 

For this card I folded two baby wipes on a plate and dropped reinker in Soft Sky, Pool Party, Marina Mist and Island Indigo to create my own multi-coloured ink pad. The key is to drop the ink spots close to one another and it give it a couple of minutes to spread a bit as you'll end up with a complete image. 


I then simply embellished with Frosted Sequins and layered on to Marina Mist cardstock embossed with the Northern Flurry Embossing Folder. The final touch was a length of Island Indigo Cotton Ribbon tied around the card to hide the join in the layers.
