Up on the Rooftops


Meet today's card.
Just a simple one filled with some fun.

I began by masking the side panel with a piece of scrap paper.  I punched a circle as well to represent the moon as I sponged with my Distress inks to fill in the masked area.
Leaving the mask in place, I stamped the trees using black Memento ink.
I removed the mask and stamped this fun flying Santa in his sleigh that I just picked up from The Stampin Place, with more black ink.  Added a simple sentiment and then mounted the whole piece onto navy cardstock.
That's it...pretty simple eh?


Thanks for coming by and taking a look.

    I love how you incorporated the moon into the scene, Karen. It wouldn't give the same feel without it

    This design is beautiful Karen and the blue tones you use are always so pretty especially with the white of the moon and the black silhouette trees, Santa and sleigh and sentiment. x
