As a break away from my usual white card bases, I went with a kraft base this time. I also used the colors from Color Throwdown, even though the challenge was closed before I started my card! I just decided to make a warm, kraft-toned card and the challenge colors suited my mood :) I did some Copic coloring and once I was finished I applied Wink of Stella to different elements on the stamped images.
I die-cut a striped piece of patterned paper using the Jumbo Fishtail Flag Stax, extending the length to suit the sketch. The sentiment is white embossed onto kraft card and tucked under the cushions and behind the mug of cocoa. I finished the card with some marshmallow sequins.
Thanks for visiting.
