Day 25 - "V"

I've used one of the vintage-looking signs from the new Signs of Christmas digital stamp set to create today's card. I also stuck to a traditional Christmas colour palette, which I think helps to give it an old world feel.


YOUR TURN: Create a card using the letter "V" as your prompt.

So beautiful. Love how you get such depth in your images with your colouring. Anesha x

I'd love to know you're color of green ? It appears neon. Maybe it's just the black background, just loving the glow of this one.

WOW, Beccy! This is magnificent! Loving the black background. Your treatment of the 'Joy' sign is so beautiful. Now I'm in love with that digital stamp set. Sigh... How am I ever going to decide where to spend my totally unexpected Race Time winnings? lol

I like how the iron looks like silver metal. Love everything against the black. And I agree that wash look to the green is amazing.

I keep getting amazed when I see thuis Black background. It is so beautiful popping out the image. Great technique, and great card!

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS card Beccy!
LOVE how you make the sign and wreath POP with the black background - WOW!!! This technique is sitting on my to-try list, along with your colouring tutorial, as soon as I finish my abc's :)
I'm hoping to do some catchup tomorrow, as I spent much longer than I should have working on my "Q" today,
all I can say is, my "Q" is definitely not for Quick!!!

You coloured the sign, wreath and bow beautifully. And as the card says: it gives a peaceful feeling. Love the subtile red and white papers underneath.

My brain tells me I couldn't use black for Christmas but you've just told my brain to "Be Quiet!" black is perfect for Christmas. Lovely work!

Would be perfect to be so easy to spread peace in the world!
But it is a way with such beauty!
