Christmas Skating Scene

Hello. The new Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge has started, the theme is always ‘anything goes Christmas’. Here is my card:

The scene was created using a layering stencil set from The Greetery, a variety of different colours – even on the same stencil – it just takes a little more patience and the use of some low tack of masking tape….

I splattered the scene panel with some white acrylic paint, and then some gold shimmer acrylic paint – and then realised maybe my ink blending wasn’t quite dry – some merging of the colours occurred – but I still like it as it gives a vintage feel I think.

Whilst that was drying, I die cut the Pinkfresh Studio ‘Rounded and Beaded Rectangles’ and layered that with a brushed gold card stock.

I then used one of the inner dies to cut the panel with the scene, and inlaid that into the frame.

The sentiment is gold foiled and attached as you see.

I hope you can come and join us with your Christmas/festive creations. xx

    What a delightful scene and it certainly does have a vintage look to it. Love the way you framed it and added the splatters along with the other touches of gold. Thank you so much for sharing with us at Christmas Craft Creations!

    This is a gorgeous scene Lynda. If you hadn’t mentioned the ink not being dry I wouldn’t have noticed any smudging or bleeding. It looks just right to me.
