This is my August Challenge. Christmas and Complementary colours, and have chosen Blue and Gold as my colours.
I have just bought a brayer and could not wait to play with it, so this is the result.
I used two blue ink pads and brayered onto a Matte coated card from Clarity although it is called matte it has a nice smooth surface, I then stamped and embossed in gold with the Holly stamp from Graphicus Christmas Flourish themeplate, and added a bit of sparkle by useing Gold Stickles on the berries, trimmed card and edged with a gold pen.
On dark blue paper I stamped and embossed in gold again, this time using one of the Clarity corner stamps, I then used the stamp again in blue but this time onto white.
After layering them up, using pads to lift the card with the holly, I stamped and embossed the wording which was again from the Christmas flourish in gold and finished with a navy ribbon. I made this card with my Brother in mind thought the colours would be good for a man card
