This is the card sent to my partner for the Just One November swap. I used an old technique which is one of my all-time favorites. I especially like this Milk Paint Technique for this time of year. It’s from the December 2005 Technique Junkie. Really, I guess, I used the Level Up Tutorial too with the greenery swag. I stamped it 3 times with different shades of Tim Holtz Distressed Inks, cut it out, and offset each layer a little bit for more “fullness” of the swag. Added all kinds of different things to it for the Christmas/Winter feel from Faux Snow to Flower Soft to Christmas Red Stickles. Hot glued the double bow to it, and Voila, LOL!! All the textures and sparkles don't show up too well in the scan unfortunately. It is much prettier IRL.
I hand drew the “hinges” for the door but think I got them a little large for the size of the card. Papers used are Stampin’ Up and Candido Incandescent from The Paper Temptress. Swag stamp and ones inside are from The Artistic Outpost. I think that about covers it.
