Hi Crafters,
It's time to share my Christmas Card Club project and this week Rachel has given us an interesting challenge this time of...
TURKEYS, CAMELS OR SHEEP
As I don't own any turkey or sheep stamps I went with Camels!
I have created four cards this time, very clean and simple designs just using an embossing folder for the frame, inking through a circle aperture with Distress Inks and stamping this lovely three wise men and camel stamp from Woodware called Nativity Silhouette. The sentiment is from the same set.
Here's a closer view of one card, the embossing shows up better in this photo.
The little star is a two-part Lea'bilities Die and was so fiddly to cut out and use but looks really good I think.
