This is what happens when I ask my husband for help designing a card. The theme at Jingle Belles is Christmas Feast ... a card featuring Christmas food or drink. Since we live in Iowa, every holiday meal includes corn ... so my husband thought I should decorate a corn stalk ... and then the card took on its own life from there.
I started by stamping & embossing my corn stalk & then coloring it with Spectrum Noir Markers (DG1, DG2, GB3 & GB4). Next I added sequin ornaments and used a gold metallic pen to draw the hangers. I'm also joining the Make Your Mark Challenge at Addicted to Stamps Challenge Blog.
As my husband and I discussed our growing holiday scene, of course we needed to add a few Christmas critters (love the look on the raccoon's face), some Presents under the Christmas Corn, a star on the top of the Corn ... and golden bling for lights. The finishing touch was our typed sentiment ... and Iowa Christmas Feast for sure.
