Mistletoe Music

Published by bronih at 12:10 pm under 2 Sketches 4 You, Card Designs, Christmas, Copic markers, Cosmo Cricket, Our Craft Lounge, Winter

Hi, everyone! I have another Our Craft Lounge Christmas card to show you today. Funny, because I had already started on this card using the Cosmo Cricket Jolly by Golly paper, when I received the Zva package that I showed in THIS post. So what a coincidence that I used a very similar mix of papers as I did on that project!

I’ve used Laura’s sketch 40 from the 2 Sketches 4 You blog. And I also used at least 5 buttons which qualifies for the Cards Magazine challenge.

All my edges are sponged with Ranger Distress antique linen ink and if you look closely, you can see the Ranger Distress crackle paint in Rock Candy on the sheet music. (Click on the photo below.) I just love that stuff!

I used a circle and scalloped circle together at the same time to cut the black glittery paper into the wreath shape. The mistletoe is colored with Copic markers.

Thanks for stopping by again today! Have a wonderful weekend! Hopefully I’ll be finishing up my Christmas cards and be able to start a little shopping! (Yep. I said “start”. Sigh.)

Stamps: Happy Holly-days (Our Craft Lounge)
Paper: vintage cream (Papertrey Ink), Fresh Paints glitter paper (K & Company), Jolly By Golly mini deck (Cosmo Cricket)
Ink: Memento tuxedo black, Ranger Distress antique linen
Other: circle & scallop circle Nestabilities, craft knife, Embossed Curve border punch (EK Success), buttons (Papertrey Ink), ink blending tool, Ranger Distress crackle paint - rock candy, red DMC floss, foam tape, May Arts ribbon, Copic markers:
