It’s my turn to host the Splitcoaststampers Featured Stamper Challenge, so a big congrats to Jan, the newest FS! She is such a sweetheart, always leaving wonderful comments & playing in the challenges & she has a really lovely gallery! I chose THIS to case. I kept the Christmas theme & joy greeting, but I used a die cut image instead of a wreath & added some sponging & snowflakes.
These lovely bells were stamped onto pine green card stock. I used Prismacolor pencils to color them, then over stamped them & die cut. I really like the look of pencils on dark card stock. The large white panel was stamped first w/ just the Joy using little red & green Memento inks then I used an embossing folder to add the texture.
The big J & Y & snowflake were die cut then sponged on the lower half. I added little snowflakes on top of the O’s on the red & green Joys. Here’s a look at the inside.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Beautiful work colouring on coloured cardstock. You don’t use pencil crayons too often but you sure look like a pro.
