Stars at Christmas card Club

Hello there! Well I have a rather rushed effort to share with you today for our fortnightly christmas card club. The theme this time is stars - which is wonderful - my problem has been time! Too much happening and crafting not featuring as much as I would like.

Here's my single effort!


A very simple make - I distressed the background then added grungepaste through a clarity stencil.


I stamped and fussy cut the stag and sentiment - both from chocolate baroque - and added them to the card!


I liked this sentiment - it made me think of space and time and I thought that went with the stars!

Have a great Sunday!

Hugs

  16. It's got loads of starry wonder, and I love your interpretation of the theme. That's a wonderful looking buck, with his stamping adding so much texture to his handsome self. Well done on this one, Rachel, and belated Happy Birthday. I don't always catch the blog announcements, so I hope you had a perfectly lovely one with your family. TFS & Hugs.

  18. You say simple, I say charming. Love the starry background, and as far as I'm concerned you can't go wrong with brown and blue. Great stamping on the stag.
