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

For the main images, I used an older Concord & 9th stamp set, and heat embossed in gold. I then Distress pencils to colour the image, and added some gold marker to the berries for more detail.

I then used the matching outline die to cut it out, and layered this image onto the black panel to ensure it stood out, then onto a white card base.

I die cut the ‘merry’ with gold card stock, and layered that a couple of times with black – a little off-set.

I hope you can come and join us and add to your Christmas stash – I look forward to seeing you in our gallery. xx

Beautiful Blossoms – anything goes with flowers/florals

Love To Craft – anything goes
