Snowmen & Transport

Hello again. We have a new challenge starting at ABC Christmas Challenge. Or Christmas themes this time are:

S is for Snowmen

&

T is for Transport

Here are my cards:

S is for Snowmen

T is for Transport

For my snowmen card, I used a die and embossing folder set from Simon Says Stamp. The images were die cut, coloured with Copics, ink blended round the edge of each snowman, then ran each through the embossing folder.

The background panel is white glitter card – the oval die cut from the centre before adding the patterned paper – covered up the oval missing piece nicely – oval added, then the snowmen added with 3D foam.

The sentiment was stamped then die cut.

For my second card – very die cut heavy – I used a Spellbinders die set from their ‘All Aboard’ kit from several years ago.

All the elements were die cut and assembled – took quite a while – all those itty bitty pieces – then put to one side whilst I thought about the background

I chose a couple of pieces of patterned paper – cream and a lilac shade -ran through with a Spellbinders embossing folder, cut down to 5×7 inch landscape, adding a strip of gold glitter card.

The train was added with 3D foam – this too was a little fiddly to get everything as lined up as I could, then the glitter words and stars added. These were die cut sticky glitter.

I hope you can come and join us with your Christmas creations following one of both of our themes. xx
