Today I am sharing a Monochromatic From Our House To Yours Christmas Card which I made a while ago for a team challenge. I love these challenges as they really push you out of your comfort zone and force you to use different products, colours or layouts than you would normally choose.
To recreate the Monochromatic From Your House To Yours card you will need:
Soft Sea Foam card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Most Wonderful Time dsp – 5¼” by 3⅜” – rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 5” by 3⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 5⅜ by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner – for the inside
Taking the smaller panel of Whisper White I drew a light pencil line about an inch from the bottom. I used the line to position the house as I have real problems stamping straight……

I stamped the central house in Old Olive ink and added the roof in Shaded Spruce ink. The house to the right was stamped in Granny Apple Green ink and the roof in Mossy Meadow ink.
The small house on the left was stamped in Pear Pizzazz ink and the roof added in Garden Green ink. The trees were added in Shaded Spruce.

I stamped the sentiment in Mint Macaron ink before gluing the stamped layer to the dsp.

The tiny stars were stamped In the upper right and lower left corners of the Soft Sea Foam card base using Call Me Clover ink before adding the stamped panel to the card front on Dimensionals.

I stamped a tree on the remaining Whisper White panel and the front of the Envelope and added the tiny stars in Soft Sea Foam ink.

The card was completed when I added some Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots in Call Me Clover. I really like this card and I’m amazed at how well all the greens work together…..Hope you like it.
