Festive Christmas Cards by Martha Lucia

Hello friends, Martha Lucia here with you!

I prepared some Festive Christmas Stamped Cards combining different stamp sets. Let me start with this festive and traditional Christmas card.

I arranged some images or borders included on the stamp set Ugly Sweeter Background over my stamping tool and inked them with Memento Rhubarb ink to stamp the images onto very vanilla card stock. After that, I resized this layer using the large Embossed Edge Rectangle die cut from Kat Scrappiness and pasted it over a real red card base.

In a separate piece of very vanilla card stock, I stamped two other images. The three is from the stamp set Happy Camper and the fabulous car from the Refuel my Soul from the Color by Faith Collection. I colored the images with Illustrators Markers from Spectrum Noir. I fussy cut the images and pasted over the decorated card base.

For my second card I used the tone to tone technique. I stamped some of the borders included on the stamp set Ugly Sweeter with Memento Rhubarb onto red card stock. Then, I resized the layer with the Embossed Edge Rectangle Die and pasted it directly over the card.

I die cut several layers of the Joy Etched Die from Spellbinders using Garden Green card stock. I pasted all the pieces on the same place to give more dimension to the die cut image an finalized the card, adding on top of the decorated card base the die cut.

My third card is using the stamp set Vintage Christmas Ornaments. I stamped several times one of the branches included on the same stamp set using two different colors of green Memento Ink. Then I resized the layer with a medium size of the Embossed Edge Rectangle Die. After that, I inked the entire layer with a soft touche of green ink and I pasted this layer over the card base using double sided foam tape.

In a separate piece of Very Vanilla card stock, I stamped one of the ornament images included on the stamp set Vintage Christmas Ornaments using Early Espresso Classic Ink. With Illustrator markers the border of the ornament and with Memento Rhubarb stamped the sentiment on the center of the ornament. To embellish the card I die cut one tiny bow onto red glitter paper using one die from the Spellbinders Large Club.
