This month for the Christmas Stampathon we are making cards with a ‘traditional theme using nontraditional colours’. I have used the new Ornamental Christmas stamp set to make my colourful cards.
Colours used to make these cards are:
To recreate the multicoloured Christmas trees cards, you will need:
Card Bases – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”x 4. I used Timid Tiger, Strawberry Slush, Petunia Pop and Azure Afternoon
Secret Sea card – 5⅜” by 3⅛” x 4
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3” x 4
Secret Sea Card – 3 ½” by ¼” x 4
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 4 for the inside
I stamped the first tree in the centre of the 5¼” by 3” panel of Basic White card using Azure Afternoon ink.

To the left of the blue tree, I added the same tree stamped with Timid Tiger ink and then another tree with Petunia Pop ink.

Using Strawberry Slush ink I stamped the tree to the right of the blue tree and finally added the last tree with Darling Duckling ink. The stamped panels were then glued to the Secret Sea panels before they were mounted on the card bases with Dimensionals.

With Versamark ink I stamped the sentiment onto the strips of Secret Sea card, covered the sticky ink with White Embossing Powder and set is using my Heat Tool. The sentiment was then added to each card front.
