Special THANKS to Ted & Michelle for this wonderful opportunity~!
Ok...let's finish yesterday first... I forgot to say that the base of the project is a 8 x 8 canvas....so larger than a card.
the 5 studio 490 stamps I used are...
The ticket... a dusty flea market find...
The leaves...a favorite of mine too...it's a great size for cards, but stamp 2 and make it larger for layouts like I did in yesterdays canvas. Here's what the stamp looks like.
The screen...can be used as a background...it's huge...or stamped over something that's been cut out.
The saying
The fly speck dots in the background...this too can be stamped over anything. I've been using the background stamps with Ranger's Jet Black Archival ink, then using Coffee Archival ink for the dots. The change in color adds another layer and more interest to the background. And...the best part...quick & easy.
Now...on to Christmas... studio 490 style...
There are 8 stamps total on this card...
The tree is designed the same way as the leaves...It's used 3 times on the card, twice on cardstock and once on grungeboard. After cutting them out, each was stamped with a different background stamp. Once again...easy to cut, as are the other designs. Another option is to stamp it over patterned paper.
It's easy to make the tree the focal point, by curling the edges of the grungeboard and layering it.

The stamps are harmonious and just great! I love how they work together so perfectly! Rock on!
Hey, lady! Just got back from a family trip to LA and I see you have your sneeks up! YEAH!!!!
Love both samples and cannot wait to see them IRL! More stinkin' excited to finally meet you face-to-face @ CHA!!
Keep 'em coming!
so great! Is the Polka Dot background on of them? Great sentiment, and, well, it's all great. Good job!
8 this time...hmmmm
the tree (1)
2 different sizes of "mesh" background (2 & 3)
2 sizes of flower (4 & 5)
leaves behind the flowers (6)
text background on flowers (7)
sentiment (8)
do i have them all??
It's Christmas in July! Thank you for making me this nice Holiday card, Wendy!
I'm guessing:
1) tree
2) screen
3) sentiment
4) large red heart
5) large flower
6) small flower
7) text on flowers & tab at top
8) design on green cardstock tree on right
Nice stamp set!
P.S.~ You can use my name of "distress spatter" if "fly specks" doesn't "fly"!
Well, done again Wendy. I'm glad I figured the "fly specks." I really liked that one alot. I see many many possiblities.
Okay today:
1. trees
2. large grid
3. small grid
4. What I call tree wiggles
5. lines (stitching)
6. flower
7. words on the flowers
8. background dots.
That's my guess and I'm sticking to it.
I hope your day is going well.
It's great to finally see some of your stamps! Well done!
Love how your new stamps work with the plain Grungeboard... I heart plain grungeboard!!!
Ok lemme see if I got your 8:
Tree, mesh background- small and large, flower- small and large, script- small and large (i think the large script is what is on the tree behind the flower)and the sentiment. Beautiful card Wendy. Priya
oh, I love all the texture and detail you put on a card! yummy!
so great to see your stamps! I love how they build texture and interest. I cannot wait for cha!
I loved those leaves on the tag you did before, AND now I know where to get them!
