Hero Arts Mad Modern Christmas

The current #staycraftywithHero Challenge is to create a Slimline Holiday card.

 

 

I decided to combine it with the Challenge at A Blog Named Hero to Use a See-Through Element.

 

 

I got some new Maribu Alcohol Inks in the mail today, so I decided to use them on a piece of pearlescent Vellum to create a See-Through background for my Slimline Card.  It's a bit hard to see but after inking the background with a combination of Arctic & Apple Ink, I used more Apple ink through the Hero Arts Every Which Way Stencil.

 

I used fun Retro stamps & dies from Hero Arts Meowy Christmas.   I added some marker coloring to the pile of gifts, embossed the silver star for the top of the tree ... and decorated my tree with four sizes of turquoise gems.

I love how full my box of holiday cards is already.
