Easiest Christmas Cards Ever



Sometimes all you need is a really great sentiment stamp.

These were so easy to create.  I used Dylusions Ink Sprays, two colors per card.



To create the effect, I sprayed the cardstock at the top of the panel, pointing the spray at an angle towards the center of the panel.  You want the majority of the spray to be off the panel, so that you're mostly getting secondary spray and you get that graduation in coverage towards the center.

The panel was then turned in the other direction and the other color of spray was used.



Once the panel was dry, the sentiment was stamped.

So so easy.



I adhered the sprayed panels to the black mat using liquid adhesive.  It's my go to adhesive when I have a panel that is warped.

Happy Monday!
