Another sneak peak set provided to the Caardvarks team was the new Clear Design Holiday Sayings. I love having all of these wonderful holiday sentiments all in one set. I also thought all of the cute little tiny elements were fun too.
Make sure you check out the an entire gallery of Caardvarks creations using this set.
By lining up five rows of sentiment and small elements on my largest acrylic block, I was able to ink and stamp only twice to cover the entire front of my card. It's one of the fabulous benefits of acrylic stamps and allows you to make lots of cards relatively quickly.
I stamped twice, clear embossed, and then sprayed my entire piece of white card stock with Adirondack Color Wash in Bottle Green.
While the green ink was drying, I printed a clip art Christmas tree (that I sized in Microsoft Word to fit the front of my card). I adhered it to my card using temporary adhesive, and then sprayed the card again with Whipped Cream Memories Mists, that reminded me of snow. To finish, I punched out a gold metallic star to adorn the top of the tree.
All you have to do for a chance to win some new Hero Arts stamps is create a new winter-themed card and link it upby midnight August 15th.

I love how you created your bg with these great sentiment stamps Stef! what a pretty Christmas card!
What a great way to say what you need to say!! This is a lovely card, love the shimmer!! You’ve done a great job showing us a neat way to use those sentiments!!
