Back again with another card today. LOL! I seem to be more motivated at the end of the month. This time I have a Christmas card.
I really like how this card turned out. My image is from Stampendous called Sacred Silhouette. I fussy cut the image and inked it with Squeezed Lemonade distress ink. The sentiment is from Doodle Pantry (sadly closed) and die cut with the tag from MFT Blueprints 13 (retired). I also inked the edges of the tag with Squeezed Lemonade. The card base is 5 x 7 (an unusual size for me) with red card stock. The green paper with stars is from American Craft. I used a doily but had to cut a little off at top and bottom. The holly paper strip is from my stash as is the ribbon that I used. The star is coated with Diamond Stickles and the red gems were added to the doily. I am entering these challenges:
- Sketch-N-Scrap challenge: World Card Making Day Sketch #5
- Rudolph Days challenge: anything Christmas goes (sorry, I forgot about paper piecing)
- Simon Says Wednesday challenge: anything goes
- Addicted to Stamps and More challenge: Christmas
- Crafty Hazelnut Christmas challenge: anything goes Christmas
Tomorrow is Halloween. The twins and their parents are coming for dinner and then we'll go around our neighborhood for trick or treat. It probably won't last too long as not many give out candy around here. Valerie, of course, is going as a princess and Arthur will be Batman. They haven't really gone trick-or-treating before so this will be different for them. Have a super Sunday. Thanks for stopping by. Peace and all good!
