w&w Happy Christmas Rerun


Hi Folks! I'm joining Winnie & Walter today as we explore an older set in the Rerun feature. This month it's Happy Christmas which has a TON of tiny elements and a TON of mixed font sentiments. Such a great value!

For this one I used the same format as the Halloween cards I made for the Moonlight rerun, where I stamped the circular 31 image in multiple Halloween colors as the focal point. This time, it's Christmas, of course, and I turned the circles into dangling ornaments by drawing a cap on each one. I also loosely drew around each circle to give them more definition.

The new In a Word: Merry Cutaway goes so well with the sentiment from this older stamp set. Everything from Winnie & Walter mixes together so nicely!



I've been getting in the habit of making duplicates when I have my supplies out. Partly because it's more efficient, and partly because I'm hoping the second one turns out better : ) This is the second one with slight changes ... smooth outlines around the ornaments, layered cutaway, sponged ink on the bottom, and gold thread to hang the ornaments.



Here's a closer look at the gold thread. I like it, but I still think the first card feels better.  Hey, at least I have a second card in my stash!

Very fun to play with this set again. Thanks so much for looking!
