I must admit that I do not watch many movies or watch much TV, but every once in a while, I'll enjoy an old classic, especially as Christmas draws near. One of these is White Christmas. I just love the "Old Fashioned Christmas" clear stamp set just released by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps (currently unavailable). The horse drawn sleigh reminds me of a scene in the movie White Christmas, so that is what I used for my sample.
Creative Nugget: In keeping with the title of the movie, a classic color combination of whites, creams, and kraft was used. A snowflake embossing folder was used to give texture to one panel, and my favorite Canvas Impression Plate was used on other panels. The background DP is from the Christmas This & That Paper Pad by Echo Park. Antique Linen Distress Ink was used to stamp the image on one panel, but this was too light for the main layer, so the image was white embossed on Kraft card stock instead. Straight and zig-zag stitching was added to each layer before adhering everything to a Neenah Solar White card front. The sentiment , also from the Old Fashioned Christmas set, was stamped in Walnut Stain Distress Ink. Some seam binding was tied through a Spellbinders snowflake die cut and some pearls were added to finish off the card...a classic card inspired by an old classic movie! Hope you like it!
Check out the movies and books that inspired the other Sugar Babies. We can't wait to see what inspires you!
