Circle vignettes
Posted: October 25, 2012 Filed under: A Wish for Peace, CAS, Christmas Lights, Christmas Music 22 CommentsWhen I was making the emboss resist snowflake cards recently I rediscovered my nestabilities dies and started cutting circle masks to play with.
For the card above I stamped the background stamp first then added the Christmas bough in black over the top. I added colour with both coloured pencils and sponging. On the card below the collage is all in the one stamp so I inked it with pistachio ink and again added colour with pencils and sponging. I restamped a few snowflakes in black because they didn’t look quite right in green ( not that I’ve ever seen a black one, mind you!)
Supplies:
Stamps: Christmas Lights, Diamond Pattern, Christmas Music, Hello Winter, A wish for Peace (Penny Black)
Inks: Memento Pistachio, Summer Sky, Danube Blue and Versafine Onyx Black(Tsukineko)
Also: Faber Castell Polychromos Pencils

These would be perfect for my Christmas collage stamps! I always enjoy your blog. First time to comment, long time observer,
These cards are beautiful and this technique would work well for making LOTS of Christmas cards! Thanks so much!!!
I love using Spellbinders to make a mask for staming. I just did a couple of cards lately and your cards have made me want to do something for Christmas now.
I’ve just found your blog. How beautiful are these!!!! Very inspirational. Thank you.
Heather, you do the most amazing things with one layer of card stock. There is so much debth and always beautiful.
Both cards are so beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration!
I think I prefer black snowflakes to green, although I’m not sure why. 😀 What a perfect collage in the first one, and beautiful colouring in the second.
Don’t forget some Australian Christmas cards for you many Aussie fans.
With love
It’s just brilliant how you do these, Heather. Your cards always look so deeply dimensional and rich!
They are just so beautiful. Always inspiring…
Absolutely beautiful, Heather. The combination of CAS with such depth in your stamped design is always amazing.
