An Un-Christmas Card


Leandra of Paperartsy has been making some fab YT videos which she has been busy posting this week.  One of them is called bumping.  If you want to know more, click here.

So this is my bumped background before I added all the extras.


I lightly stamped the small flower head in the background, stamped the happy with the alphabitties.  I coloured the key keeper with distress ink markers and the water brush, cut him out and stuck him on the background.  Inked the edges with timber brown stazon and mounted onto a folded piece of kraft card to make my non traditional Christmas card as this is what Stampotique want to see this week for their challenge.

I watched the bump video, and loved it, and I love how you've used it here - fabulous bumping, and image over! And also lovely to have a break from being reminded how little Christmas prep I've done...
