Joyeux Noel

Hello once again. The new challenge at The Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge has started. Kate has taken over the helm for this challenge. Here is my card:

The background was created by die cutting a Pinkfresh Studio cover plate and adhering that to a brushed gold panel.

Now onto the main image – lots and lots of die cutting, piecing those itty bitty pieces together – and watching YouTube to figure out how to make her dance:

It’s actually quite an easy and simple idea to be able to create the ‘dancing’ and movement – ingenious if you ask me,

The dies are from Spellbinders, and cut using a mixture of patterned paper, black glitter foam, and gold.

I added the foiled sentiment, and also added some small gold gems to the centre of each snowflake.

I hope you can come and join us with your Christmas creations – anything goes Christmas. I look forward to seeing you in our gallery. xx

  4. I too love that background and I think the additional embellishments are a wonderful touch. That die must have been a lot of work to figure out. Takes a lot of patience which in my case is sometimes in short supply.

  5. Lynda: Your card is festive and delightful! The background is wonderful! It just adds to the flair for holiday festivities! It’s been years since I’ve been loaded down with a stack of gifts like your gal. Nowadays the nieces and nephews are happy to have cash or gift cards! Excellent Christmas card, teamie!!!
