Hello everyone. The ABC Christmas Challenge has reached the last challenge for this year. Helen is hosting this month, and having arrived at the letters ‘Y’ and ‘Z’, and we want to see your Christmas makes following the themes of:
Y is for Your Choice, Z is for Zebra – black and white or stripes
I chose ‘Y is for Your Choice’. Here is my card:
The background is using Spellbinders sage green card stock, and a Simon Says Stamp embossing folder. The circle is from Pinkfresh Studio, die cut using the same sage green card stock, and layered as you see.
The snowflake is from Pinkfresh Studio, stamped with one of the darker inks I used to ink blend with, then ink blended, using green/blue tones, and using a lighter or heavier hand to create even more contrast between the layers of the stencil.
I then used the matching die to cut it out, and attached it to the layers on the card base, then added some silver gems to the centre and four of the points.
The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn, silver foiled, then die cut using the matching die set.
I hope you can come and join us with your festive/Christmas creations – following our themes.
I shall be entering the following challenges:
Merry Little Christmas Challenge – anything goes Christmas
Mix It Up – anything goes – option of stamping
Christmas Bingo – column B – free, stamped image, ink blending
