Watercolored Christmas with Pals Paper Arts

Christmas

Before I share my thoughts about this card I’m gonna say that I’m not the type of card-make that gets a “vision” sort-of-speak of the card I’m going to make, not even when it’s a card sketch. There’s no real science or college degree needed to make cards.  The only important this to have FUN!  That’s it folks.

Although I feel more skilled than I was four years ago when I joined Stampin’ Up!, I feel I’m better now because like medicine, it’s a practice (lol), we’re all card-diologists.

My card was made specifically for the Pals Paper Arts Sketch 272. 

MAGGIE MADE TIPS:

  • Fringes.  I added the golden fringes to the bottom of the designer series paper to stick to the sketch of the challenge (see below).  I wasn’t sure how it would turnout, again, I don’t get visions in my head, I simply just tried it.  Had I not liked the way it looked, I probably would’ve just taken it off.
  • Vellum.  I wasn’t sure where to stamp the sentiment and thought it’d be a good idea to use vellum. Pow!  Loved it.  The 2013-15 In-Color sequence finished it all off.

15% Off Stamps.  Starting October 19, stamps will be discounted 15 percent off retail. This sale will only be around for a few days and ends on October 23, so don’t miss out! Check back on Monday for more information.

Get to know my Circle of Pals.  My group is mostly all hobby demo’s who join for the discount on paper-crafting supplies don’t want the commitment of holding classes or being a salesperson (yuck right)!?   I welcome these types of demo’s with Arms Wide Open, so don’t fear a committment or a penalty if you sign up for the discount.  Heck, you can even team up with a friend because my team is a non-hassle, non-committment, no sales requirement team.  What does that mean?  Read it  here.
