Heartflakes Season - BYSHC Linky Party

 


Good morning!  I've been having fun creating some Christmas cards for the Spring into Christmas Linky Party on the BYSHC blog this week, and this one was a fun experiment.

I brushed some pink oxide ink over some watercolor cardstock, placed the Heartflakes stencil from A Colorful Life Designs (use code HollyFan10 to save 10%) over this panel, and then used a baby wipe to remove some of the ink through the stencil openings.  It's a very rustic, distressed background, and it almost looks like snowflakes.  I splattered this panel with some white acrylic ink and set it aside to dry.  

After I die cut a large white circle, I added it to the side of the pink Heartflakes panel and trimmed the excess.  Then I added this fun pink house sticker (Doodlepops) along with the blue hearts and the silvery white snowflakes to the card.  The sentiment (Hero Arts) was stamped, trimmed, and adhered below the house.  How cute is that??

Come join the fun over on the BYSHC blog - just make a Christmas, Hannukah, or wintery card and share it in the Linky Party.  We'd love to see what you've created for your holiday card stash!
