The challenge for the CCEE Stampers today is to make a one layer card. I absolutely love this
Mark's Finest Paper stamp set US Heroes. Today I wanted to do something different with it so I turned it into a Christmas card. I started out doing the masking tape magic technique by rubbing masking tape over the stamp pad and then rubbed the tape on the card to make the stripes. I inked my stamp with a marker instead of a pad so I could leave the USA off of the stamp and then stamp in the peace sentiment. I also used the Mark's Finest Paper stamps "Christmas Cardinal" and "Presents". So what do you think of this Heroes stamp set being used on a Christmas card?
Thanks, for stopping by today.
