I really like the Christmas card Betsy made. Here is my take:
Looks kinda Christmas-y doesn't it. Have to actually READ it to get it. I went with some text stamps from Cosmo Cricket because they had flat bottoms and didn't look totally perfect to begin with. I feared my reflected stamping might not come out perfectly. And it didn't. But it's Halloween. That's cool.
I used the color scheme from Play Date Cafe #151 to mix things up a bit too.
Notice the faint hexagons. Trendy, eh? Just like the gals over at Three Cool Chicks. Day #5 was about hexagons. Here they are.
And since this technique was totally new to me, I'm playing along with Young Crafter's Unite Challenge #14 to Learn Something New.
Thanks for your visit.

ReplyDeleteSo fun!
ReplyDeleteI love how you used these colors instead of just black, orange, purple, & green which are more traditional with the sentiments. Nice job! BTW, I live near wine country - and I hate lima beans too!
