CAS243 ~ Candy Cane ~

Today's card is for the Clean and Simple Challenge at SCS.  The challenge this time...  feature candy.  And with Christmas approaching in the next few months, I chose to use a candy cane image!  You may find the SCS gallery HERE.

 And the Candy Cane stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs'...

 

 



I used red and white card stock, embossing the red layer with a candy cane embossing folder.  The image was colored with Copics before fussy cutting and adding dimensional glaze.  I added a dusting of glitter and allowed it to dry.  Then I added more dimensional glaze.  A few pearls adorn the die cut sentiment panel...  one of my favorite color combos...  red and white! 

 

Are you ready for Christmas yet?  I'm sure humming Christmas carols...  Thanks for stopping by!

 

Blessings...

A Look Back at Our Daily Bread Designs October Release

Today we are taking a look back at Our Daily Bread Designs October Release.  Can you believe that the month is winding down?  With Thanksgiving around the corner, I begin to kick my Christmas mojo into high gear.  Here is the card I created using Candy Cane.

 

and a close-up... 

 

(after coloring the image with Copics and adding dimensional glaze, I added a bit of glitter...)

 

and an image of the stamp set...

 

There are several layers to this card.  I started out with a 5.5 x 4.25 inch red card stock base and added a white matted layer and then olive green.  The three colors mat/highlight a Christmas paisley print paper I choice for the final base layer.  I inked the edges of the paisley design with a tea dye distress ink.  
I then cut a red/white snowflake print and embossed it with a geometric EF.  I cut the panel into 4  1.5 x 2.75 inch rectangles.  They were popped up with dimensional foam.  I stamped the sentiment (black) on white card stock before cutting/embossing with a Spellbinder die. 

 

The candy cane (stamped on Copic compatible paper and colored) was covered with dimensional glaze before adding a light dusting of glitter.  Once my image dried, I fussy cut it and added it with dimensional foam to the bottom.  I think I need to try this with another one!  Thanks for looking!
