Heart of Christmas - Week 22 Great Tidings Bundle

I hosted my last card class for the year last Saturday and we made this card, it's part of the story of Jesus birth with the 3 Wise Men.  I have chosen natural tones and after stamping the 3 Wise Men in Early Espresso on Very Vanilla I got my water painter and blended the colour to create a coloured in effect.

Stamp Set:  Great Tidings

Cardstock:  Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla, Cinnamon Cider, Gold Foil Sheet

Heart of Christmas - Week 21 Evergreen Elegance Bundle

It's less than 5 weeks to Christmas and the cards are definitely in full swing. I do start in July but I seem to always need to make a dash at the end of November.

Thanks for stopping by tonight as I am sharing a card on the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop 2021 and wow I love all the inspiration again this week.

I am using the Evergreen Elegance Bunch which includes the Evergreen Elegance stamp set and matching Evergreen Border Punch.  I have chosen lots of shades of green - Soft Sea Foam, Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive and Mossy Meadow for the difference size trees, which I have stamped in the background then others I have stamped of Basic White and fussy cut out.  I added a row of the punched out trees in Soft Sea Foam and then over stamped in the varying greens.  I have then added some sparkle to the trees with the Clear Wink of Stella.  Finally I added the Merry Christmas sentiment again from the same stamp set.
