Simple Hanukkah Card

Sometimes, the simplest cards look like they took a long time to craft. Here is an example.

ShalomSayings02a

This card uses the Shalom Sayings, Party Hearty and Sanded background stamp sets. I created a gate-fold card base – the 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Very Vanilla card stock was scored at 2" and 6-1/4" . The menorah was stamped on a small piece of Very Vanilla, then mounted on Tempting Turquoise, So Saffron, and Basic Black. The Ticket Corner Punch added some interest to the middle two layers.

Here is a close up view of the center piece.

ShalomSayings02b

I used the Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to color the text on the menorah stamp, then punched it out with the Word Window Punch. Of course I sponged the edges and stuck it to the menorah with Stampin' Dimensionals! An Ice Square Rhinestone Brad at the base of the menorah adds a little glitz. This flat card is easy to mail!

Any questions – feel free to leave me a comment!

Happy Hanukkah!

Until next time,
Happy Stamping!
