For many crafters, Christmas started long ago and when it comes to sending cards overseas, there is a need to think well in advance, so when I saw this sentiment in the Holly Berry Happiness Stamp Set, I knew exactly what I wanted to create.
There on my shelf, un-inked, was the stamp set Places You’ll Go with the globe that I had in my mind.
Inking up the leafy circle in Garden Green and adding some Real Red Berries, just seemed so fitting for this simple card.
I added a gentle wash of Pool Party to the background to coordinate with the card base and some shadowing to the base to help anchor the globe, a few punched holly leaves and a Banner and the card was complete.
I hope this inspires you to get ahead for those overseas Christmas Cards and perhaps look at your stamp sets in a different light.
