Sweet Winter Wishes

Hi everyone.  Sharing another Christmas card today.  This was quick and easy to make as I had a piece of alcohol ink paper in my stash.  I just die-cut this sweet tree die (on loan from my dear friend, Susan) and stamped the sentiment in Delicata silver.  QCAS (quick and clean and simple) as Darnell would say! :)

Adding this card to the CAS Mix Up December gallery.  Come join us!


Here's a close-up.
I love this die so much that I went and bought one for myself.  :)

Edited to add:  Sorry, I missed adding the info about the die.  It's called Evergreen Window and is made by Memory Box.







Stamps:  Snowglobe Sentiments (My Favorite Things)
Paper:  Yupo for Alcohol ink background; White card base (Neenah 110 lb.)
Ink:  Alcohol inks (Ranger / Pinata); Delicata Silver (Tsukineko)
Accessories & Tools:  Blender solution in a spray bottle, Evergreen Window die (Memory Box)

Challenges:

    I like that acronym "QCAS"! A beautiful AI background (and of course, one of my favourite dies!).

    Loll, you have all of us scrambling for this die! Against that gorgeous alcohol ink background it's just beautiful in white! I saw Susan's card too and that definitely went on the wish list!

    Oh my, this is a stunning card Loll! It might have been quick and simple, but it sure doesn't look like it was a quick and simple card. I love that inky background, so vivid and beautiful against the white. Love it! Hugs, Brenda

    So gorgeous! Love this die. Miz B enabled me to find it, (had to hunt too!) and I think this is just a marvelous focal point for the lovely background. Enjoying all the earlier watercolor florals too. TFS & Hugs
