The double ampersand is not a typo. 🙂
Hey everyone! Happy Wednesday! How are you all today?
Today I broke out PTI’s Grand Ampersand set for the first time. Not truly ‘grand’ in my opinion (I mean, have you seen the Kelly Purkey die?!) but still a fun set nonetheless! I wanted to do something that had a bit of a typographic feel so I ended up with this:
What do you think? I’m pretty happy with how it turned out! Originally it was going to be sentimentless but I guess I really am aching to inject a little Christmas cheer into everything, lol!
I started with a Stamper’s Select White card base and stamped my ampersands using Soft Stone ink.
I then stamped the sentiment using Memento Luxe inks in Love Letter, Tuxedo Black and Olive Grove, then with some masking was able to add the holly from the centre of one of the tags from 2010 Holiday Tags, and that was it! When did I become so Clean And Simple?!
Well, I am exhausted so am planning to head off for some shut-eye! I would love it if you left some love before you went on your way! Thanks so much for stopping by!
