Happy Chanukah everyone! Last night was the first of 8 nights of celebrating. To celebrate we light the candles and there are a few presents. We don’t do gifts every night like my youngest wants, but we do play dreidel and have fun. I also make cards to send out to all our Jewish family and friends. Since I need to make more than 2 dozen cards just for Chanukah, I keep the design simple. And the Celebrate the Miracle stamp set makes it easy to make simple AND pretty cards.
For the card base I’m using Balmy Blue. Balmy Blue is also my main ink colour. To start I stamped a few Stars of David in the background with Balmy Blue ink. But the sentiment, “sending love and light”, I stamped with Wild Wheat. It’s such a lovely golden colour! I also used Wild Wheat for my candle flames. Chanukah candles are often colourful, so I stamped those with Balmy Blue ink. And the Chanukkiah is stamped with Smoky Slate. I popped up my lit Chanukkiah with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then I added a few Adhesive Backed Glitter Sequins to add a little more sparkle.
The Celebrate the Miracle stamp set makes it so easy to make Chanukah cards. This stamp set is definitely going into my permanent stash! I can’t wait to see how my projects for our upcoming family dinner turn out!
