Inspired Stamps Little One and Verse

Hello and welcome here. This week the Inspired Stamps DT is showcasing a His Little Ones (HLO) and a Verse. I tried to go a little vintage-y, but I don't think I got too far, lol. But I still like how this card turned out.
Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"

I started the card by using CTMH Colonial White CS rather than white, including using it for HLO. I added white gel pen to the whites of his eyes. The patterned paper had the vintage colour on 2 of the side and by using Distress Inks Vintage Photo and Tea Dye, I was able to complete the look around the whole card base.

The patterned paper already has glitter on it, I added Stickles to the ornament and his eyes for extra glitter.

  3. what a lovely technique and card! I started to try using Colonial White with the HLO's this week but was concerned about the eyes. You are so clever to have solved that issue!
