October Blog Hop - Day 4 - Create with Pine Boughs


Welcome to the Marks Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company

October Blog Hop!

 Featured Oct. 28 - Owls

Featured Oct. 31 - Create with Pine Boughs
 
I had some fun with this set creating 4 cards. 
 
The first one uses a blown alcohol ink background and the baubles from the set stamped and embossed in gold.

The second one uses the bauble image on designer paper to create a 3D effect bauble.
 
The third card uses the bulb and the greenery to create a garland 

This card is my favourite - coloured with Copics and simply mounted with a gold border.

I have seen Cardinals when we were in Minnesota but they are not a Christmas symbol in the UK so I have only made one card which is actually travelling to the states.

I made a card and a bookmark with this set.  A blown alcohol ink background and an owl coloured to match.  The bookmark has a more traditional coloured owl.
