A Christmas Card for a few Challenges

Hi all, today I have a card for a few challenges. I inspired myself with yesterday's non-traditional coloured Christmas card lol! So with my mojo in fully working order, I set to!

I have made a card with a kraft base, and layered some pink bazzill on top.

Then using a Nellie Snellen die, cut some dark pink paper from a paper stack by Wild Rose Studio. Then stamped the candy cane wreath from WMS Faux Fun Circles in Dewdrop Rosebud.

Using the same ink I then stamped the frame from Very Vintage Christmas and cut the middle part and the sentiments out, and layered them onto the candy wreath.

Then layered this onto the die cut circle. This was then layered onto a scalloped circle cut with nesties, and stamped using the border stamp from WMS Victorian Fripperie in Pink Petunia ink.


Threaded some pink ribbon and thin chiffon through the edge of the frame, and tied a little bow at the top. Attached to card, and added some daisy lace to the edges. As I used double sided sticky tape for this, it was showing through the lace - hmm, what shall I do? I grabbed my glamour dust, and sprinkled it in great quantities, and it looks divine!



This card is so twinkly now, I wish I could photograph it better to show you!

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:

Hi all, today I have a card inspired by Mona Pendleton's new challenge blog CR84FN and Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge.

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:

WMS Tag You're It! Challenge

Hi all, this is my last tag for the WMS competition, I've had such fun making them! Going to be making a few more, maybe for the new WMS Sketch Challenge,I still have some ideas floating around.


Using a dark glittery green base, cut a heart using nesties, clear embossed the heart from Season's of love, and cut, layered up, added a sentiment from Very Vintage Christmas and used some of that pretty ribbon that squishes into a bow type of thing!



Threaded some green cord through the top for hanging.


Then stampe the flourishes on the back from Compliments of the Season, and the sentiments from Very Vintage Christmas, added a dark grey pearl, and it's job done!

And here's another tag for the competition over at WMS.

Using cream bazzill as a base, script embossed the tag, then lightly went over the raised script with Antique Linen distress ink, then sponged around the edges.

Cut a label in marroon using nesties labels 3 and stamped a snowflake in each corner from Sewing Box Christmas. Cut a cream frame using a Nellie Snellen die, and mounted it over a circle of kraft card stamped with a sentiment from Compliments of the Season.



Layered all together, added some lovely black gems and a little rose with chiffon ribbon, punched the bottom edge with a martha Stewart punch, and I love it!
