I have always been drawn to Folk Art images whether it’s in books, on ceramics or on greeting cards. The intricate designs and crisp, graphic look just draw me in. I recently received a beautiful Folk Art Christmas stamp with a magazine I purchased and wanted to try it out for a Christmas card.
I started with a panel of Cougar White Super Smooth 100# cardstock and stamped the Noel in the middle, and then some of the pretty holly leaves to frame it.
I wanted to keep the card pretty clean and simple, so I stamped a couple of the hearts with folk art scenes and trimmed them out.
Before placing the hearts on either side of the “Noel,” I trimmed my original white panel down and adhered it to some Pop-Tone Wild Cherry cardstock with foam squares. I then adhered the entire panel to a notecard I made with more Cougar Super Smooth. I love the crisp, bright red of this cardstock–a perfect Christmas red!
