52 CCT Sketch Challenge

Over at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown we have a great sketch challenge for you! You can flip it (like I have!) We just need to be able to recognise the elements of the sketch. I do hope that you will join us.

I opted for Lawn Fawn's cute Winter Fox with her steaming mug of hot chocolate. The tiny snowflakes and sentiment are also Lawn Fawn, but from Arctic Critters. I've coloured Foxy with Promarkers and used two of Stampin' Up's new, fabulous In-colours - Delightful Dijon and Mint Macaron for the second tag (embossed with SU's Argyle embossing folder) and the card base. These new colours complement a piece of patterned paper from Fancy Pants (Timbergrove) and the whole thing reminds me of a woolly jumper.

Please have a look at the rest of the Design Team's great cards and we look forward to seeing your Christmas creations, April x

52 CCT Sketch Challenge

We have a fantastic new sketch over at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown and here it is!

 

You can use any shape or embellishment for your card. I have flipped my embellishment to suit the prancing reindeer! He is a lovely Marianne die cut and I have added some glitter to his antlers and flank with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen. I cut some Stampin' Up Typeset Speciality Paper with a Framelit Label die, sponging the edges to create a vintage effect and stamped some tiny silver stars. The greenery is a Sizzix die and the holly berries are rhinestones coloured with Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities. The sentiment is from Ornamental Pine and is cut using a Project Life die. Everything is stuck onto a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock embossed with the SU Argyle embossing folder.

I hope that you will visit us over at 52 CCT and share your festive creations. Happy Crafting! April x

CHNC Joy to the World

Here is my entry for CHNC Challenge 213.

The Joy to the World stamp came free with a magazine and I stamped the wreath twice with Pistachio Pudding and Old Olive. I then embossed a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock with the SU Argyle embossing folder and added a bow made from Cherry Cobbler chevron ribbon. I hope you like it! April x
