I know I have been missing in action for the longest time. As usual the reason being, one word: LAZY. Anyway that is not what I would like to blog about today. These days, I spent most of my time browsing through my favourite YouTube channel for cardmaking inspirations and with Christmas being around the corner, most of my favourite designers started to upload their 12 Days of Christmas Card Series or 25 Days of Christmas Card Series. So I thought that it will be a great idea to do my own series of 12 Days of Christmas Card. As I know nothing about making and uploading videos, I decided to make and post a Christmas card on my blog everyday for 12 days.
Although I do not always celebrate Christmas, I have always loved Christmas so when I went into cardmaking and stamping, I bought quite a number of Studio G's Christmas themed mini stamp sets. Due to my lazy and procrastinating nature, I haven't gotten around to use the stamp sets to make Christmas cards. By doing this series, it helps me to fully utilize my stamps rather then just storing them away.
Anyway, without further ado, here's the first card to my 12 Days of Christmas Card Series for today.
A very simple card - Love the Santa and reindeer, so cute ~
Close-up shot to show that I added white dazzling glitters to the Santa's hat, beard and on the ground as though they are standing on snow covered ground. I also added some glossy accent to the reindeer's nose.
Supplies used:-
Stamp sets: 3 different Studio G's stamp sets (I have forgotten the names of the stamp sets, I don't think it is stated on the original packaging either)
Patterned paper: October Afternoon Holiday Style, My Mind's Eye So Sophie "Never Enough" Daring Dot
Cardstock: Regular green and white cardstock from Popular bookstore
Ink pads: Stazon Jet Black, Versafine Vintage Sepia
