Clarity Christmas Baubles Cards

Well it's my favourite weekend of the month again, time for another In the Classroom with Barbara Gray show.  I made 14 cards for the shows this weekend and here are the first two.

The new stamps this month were the Baubles kit.


I used the little fir branch to make a wreath.  I drew a circle on the card in pencil and then built up the wreath off it.  I went around the inside once, then overlapped them a bit on the outside to make it look more bushy.  I added the glittery stamped baubles to finish it off.


I was a little kid in the 1970s and I remember the brightly coloured Christmas tree ornaments we had.  None of the sophisticated colour co-ordination we have today!  That's what inspired this card.

I used the large Joy stamp from Lesson 4 and added the stars to it.  I also added a few extra stars to the side panels.  It's a bit on the bright side but that's the '70s for you!
