It's Inspiration Time over at STAMPlorations. This week my teamies and I are showcasing stamps by our very own Shirley under her label 'The Bee's Knees'.
I decided to work with the Layered Holly and little bit of help from the Christmas Blessings Phrase Die and the Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies to create today's inspiration piece. Here it is ...
I had this idea of a non-traditional card with pink holly berries and a pigment powder background hence I started off sprinkling some infusion powders on a piece of white card and spritzed them with water.
Once dry, I stamped the holly leaves, heat embossed the berries and stamped an outline in bright pink. For the frame I simply used the smallest of the nesting dies and cut out the inside with my ruler and craft knife. All that was left to add was the sentiment and a couple of bright pink metal dots.
As mentioned earlier, this week we are showcasing stamps designed by our very own Shirley under her label 'The Bee's Knees'.
