Christmas: Sentiment with resist background

cr00349-cr00350

These cards were created on 20th November; day 20 of The Daily Marker 30 Day Colouring Challenge.

I picked up this greetings stamp set so I would have some decent-sized sentiments that would work to create any last minute cards that are needed (there are always at least a couple). I made a couple of quick cards for my Christmas card stash and took the opportunity to try out the resist papers I picked up from Wow!

How:

I stamped the sentiments and coloured in the letters using whatever gel pens came to hand. The resist paper strips were coloured with spray mists and layered over some patterned paper on the card bases. I die-cut the sentiment panels and mounted them on some thin foam to give just a little dimension.
