{BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party - O Holy Night

 Hello again! I am still creating cards using scraps from my stash for the {BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party!

As I said from the beginning, I tend to use up the most scraps during these linky parties! Throughout the year, it's my personal challenge to myself! This again is created from scraps. I created the background with scraps of shades of blue. The kraft piece in the back has a giant square cut out of its center. The image used is from Unity Stamp Co., called Brightly Shining (it appears to be retired).

I stamped it on scrap of white cardstock and die cut it with the make a tag die set from Unity. I backed it with a piece of navy cardstock, added some navy ribbon and some ivory seam binding (from My Scrap Cabin), and finished it with some foam adhesive. Enamel dots from Gina Marie Designs!

I used a past sketch from {BYSHC} for inspiration....a photo of sketch 36 is below!

p.s. if interested, there is a facebook group called Unity Stamp Swap where you could possibly find retired Unity Stamps! :)

{BYSHC} Sketch 31 Challenge

Hello Friends and welcome to March! New sketch at {BYSHC} to run through the end of the month! My card today is a new favorite!

This lovely card started with a white top fold card base. Next I added a black background. I measured my other pieces according to the sketch and got them ready to assemble. The focal image is a stamp from Unity Stamp Co. called All is Calm.  I stamped it on white cardstock with VersaFineClair in Nocturne. Next I die cut it with the smallest circle from Scallops & Circles (nesting die) set from Unity. I ink blended some faded jeans and scattered straw. I added some star sequins and yellow gems. The sentiment was stamped with VersaMark and embossed with gina k. designs fine detail white embossing powder and fussy cut to just have the sentiment. Mounted the circle with foam tape to add dimension.
