Hello Friday! Today, I’m sharing a card that I created last week on my Wednesday night FB Live. Over the course of the month I created some Christmas in July themed projects. I love the images from the Garden Meadow bundle and after having it on my desk to create my monochromatic project (check that out here) I thought it would be nice to create a Christmas card with it.
I chose some cooler tones for my wheelbarrow and added some bright Red flowers to bring in the Christmas theme. The Winter Meadow Designer Series Paper with the trees adds to the cool, snowy atmosphere I had envisioned.
For all my tips and details on creating this card, make sure you watch the video tutorial.

Hello, Welcome to a Monochromatic Saturday with Gray Granite as the featured colour for our weekly Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Insta Hop. Just like last week, with Night of Navy, I was leaning towards a masculine card however I felt it may be too heavy and in the end opted for a floral card with the Garden Meadow bundle for a fresh feel to this colour.
I started with the beautiful Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder and added some blending with Gray Granite ink over the raised areas. Then I went with smaller elements to fill out my card. The gumboots were stamped onto the Lily Pond Lane Designer Series Paper and I fussy cut them instead of using the coordinating dies as I didn’t want a margin around the edge.
I coloured the watering can in Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends adding some shadow with the Light Basic Black Stampin’ Blend.
Layered die cut circles form the base for these small elements to be arranged around. Using the Choose Happy stamp set, I stamped and fussy cut some flowers from the Nature’s Sweetness DSP.
I die cut some leaves from Gold Foil using the Stippled Roses dies and cut them apart to fit between the flowers. The gold coordinated beautifully with the touches of gold on the flowers.
