My first card features the fabulous Autumn Tree set! I stamped the tree image and colored with copics. I used the Pointillism technique on parts of the image. I stamped the xoxoxo from Ornate Border Sentiments inside the heart! I stamped the sentiment and cut it out with an Antique Labels and Border and added it to a mat cut with a die from the Vintage Flourish Pattern die set. I also embossed a Spellbinders square die to make a frame.
Here is my second card featuring the Mother and Child Ornament stamp:
This is such a beautifully drawn image of our Lord and Savior with Mary! I decided to keep this one simple so the focus is on them. I colored the image with copics and cut it out with a circle from Circle Ornament Dies and then a larger circle is the mat cut from the new Matting Circles set! The circles are layered over the largest Doily die. A spellbinders die is embossed for the frame. I added some stickles on His halo and a little on the bodice of Mary's dress. A pretty bow completes the card!
Here are the ODBD products I used today:
