Christmas Take Two

 Hello again Blogland

As promised (or threatened?) you're getting my waffle twice this morning - and this is your second helping!

It's the first Saturday of the month and so it's time for a new challenge over at Crafty Calendar Challenge, this month as, if you hadn't noticed, it's December and Christmas is creeping up on us the challenge is: 'Christmas'

We are sponsored for this challenge by the wonderful Lili of the Valley and the lucky winner of the challenge gets to pick two images.  You lucky person!! Also the Design Team were very kindly given images to use and this is my make with my choice.


Supplies used:
Digital stamp:
Lili of the Valley - A Little Gift
coloured with my Copics

Dies:
Creative Expressions - Noble Collection: Double Stitched Squares

Anything else:
Cosmic Shimmer spritzed background paper
Red dotty ribbon
Hobby House flat backed pearls
Craftwork Cards - pre-printed sentiment

What I did:
Re-sized and printed the digi stamp onto Copic friendly paper and coloured in.
Spritzed some white card with Ocean Sparkle and Silver Moondust Cosmic Shimmer spray, then cut the card down to fit my card blank.
Wrapped the ribbon around that piece of card and glued it to the card blank.
Die-cut out the digi image and attached it to the card with 3d foam.
Added pearls to opposite corners of the digi image panel.
Added 3d foam to the sentiment and half-mounted it onto the digi image panel and half off.

et voila, job done!

As I haven't done much in the last hour and half - apart from get a sourdough loaf in the oven and head over to do weights in my 'gym' - I'm not going to waffle on about nothing!

Instead I'll say see you all again soon,
but not this soon!!
Signing off,
Sarah

  4. This certainly is one of the cutest winter/Christmas cards I've seen so far, I love the image you've worked with. Your colouring is awesome, and the background paper looks like a snowstorm which makes it a perfect match for your centerpiece. The red ribbon is such a wonderful accent, especially with the red details in the image. Thanks for joining the Alphabet challenge.

    Hugs, Veronika
