At least some of the Cardologists have decided that this Holiday Home stamp set in the Stampin' Up holiday catalog ranks among their favorites. Check out all the little stamps that come in this set sized to "fit" the houses. This cute Santa and reindeer have been appearing in front of the full moon all over blogland. Tonight we made our version (or should I say versions?).
We all started by masking a moon shape and sponging ink on glossy paper, using four Marvy blues with a little Memento black to darken the corner. While that dried, we stamped, colored and fussy cut the three houses. The hard part was picking a card color; mine is cherry cobbler with a thin black mat. The streetlamp and tree were stamped directly on the card and a line added to ground them. Then the houses were popped up on the panel. We turned the streetlights "on" with our white pens and added a little bling (of course) on the Christmas lights and wreath.
I hear we might have a little snow in our day tomorrow. Ho Ho Ho. Susanne and Melba, we missed you tonight. Hope you are feeling better soon.
Thanks for visiting.
Oh, I love it soooo much! Perfect sponging and coloring! That set is just the cutest!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your well wishes! I am starting to feel a bit better! Finally!
Dora, I love your choice of the cherry cobbler and black to offset that warm Christmas eve street scene! It really is a scene that is so classic and well-loved and every element is done is with skill and care!! Hugs, Darnell
