Today was my turn to be on the spotlight over at Jane's Doodles and I made this monochrome, one layer, Vintage Warm Wishes Card.
To make this card, I used three Jane's Doodles stamp sets: 'Coffee Time', 'Winter Wishes' and 'Mr. & Mrs. Claus'.
For a card base I used Canson XL Mixed Media Paper. Some stamping and masking directly on the card base and my coffee winter scene was built. I also stamped a sentiment on the card base.
I colored the card in watercolor technique using only one Distress Ink Color: Ground Espresso. As a finishing touch I splattered the card with same Distress Ink.
- Jane's Doodles 'Coffee Time' stamp set
- Jane's Doodles 'Winter Wishes' stamp set
- Jane's Doodles 'Mr. & Mrs. Claus' stamp set
- Canson XL Mixed Media Paper, 300 g
- Ranger Archival Ink, Jet Black
- Tim Holtz's Distress Ink Ground Espresso
- Fiskars High Precision Personal Paper Trimmer

- bone folder
- scissors
- Marabu fine rounded paint brush no.#0
- Ranger Heat It Craft Tool (for drying)

I'm very satisfied how my card turned out. I achieved Vintage look, just as I wanted. :o) While I was making this card I had on my mind a friend crafter, coffee lover, so I made it for her. I hope she'll like it. :o)
