A fab reason to treat yourself to a new stamp to make some of those Christmas cards with. Just in case you need any convincing to buy one,the Ladybugs have all been given the stamp to create their DT cards this week so make sure you check out all of their cards and hopefully pick up some inspiration along the way!
So onto this week's challenge, the theme is either to use Non Traditional Christmas Colours, Use Distressing or Both.
Me,I got totally distressed,ripped my papers,faked my stitching even rubbed some paints on my cardstock, so out of my comfort zone but then that's why it's called a challenge.Love the colours though and check out my lovely snowflake,cut using a birthday gift from one of my lovely teamies. A bit of embossing,some glitter added to my image coloured with copics a bit of ribbon and bling and the card
is complete. Thanks Sue for hosting this week's
challenge.
I'm using my card for the following challenges:-
Forever Friends,Animal and bling,
OLLCB92,Stitching,
Pollycraft, Anything goes,
TPE123,Distressing,
Craft Your Passion 82, Bingo(bottom line),
Dream Valley 19, Anything goes,
PPUKCB6, Distress,
