CR84FN is a colour challenge based on this beautiful photo:
The sketch is from Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge:
I have made a card with a white linen base, and cut 3 circular shapes using a Nellie Snellen die.
I have stamped the candy cane wreath from Faux Fun Circles in Memento Angel Pink, stamped the little leaf circle in Versamagic Sage, and the little circle in the middle again in Angel Pink.
The centre label is stamped in Angel Pink using Very Vintage Christmas and stamped again in Memento Rosebud then cut the sentiments out in the darker pink and layered them onto the paler label.
Threaded some fluffy pink ribbon through the two side labels, and some pink ribbon through the middle one.
Layered them up onto some pale green glitter card edged with a pinky green ribbon, and chalked around the edges of the card with pink chalk ink. Finally added some green dew drops from Kars.
I must admit the colours were a little out of my comfort zone for a christmas themed card, but I think it makes a lovely girly fun card, and I'm really pleased how it turned out.
I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
