I'm excited to announce that I'm joining the Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog design team!! This is a Anything Goes Christmas Challenge blog! Challenges are posted on the first day of each odd month and run to the 15th of the following month. I think this is a great opportunity to jump start my mojo and start building a stash of Christmas cards! You can find the challenge details HERE.

My card features the Wonder of Christmas and Holiday Greetings stamp sets from Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps. I stamped the images with alcohol friendly ink and used copic marker to color. I then cut the images out with the coordinating die set and created a little scene on my card front. To finish off the card I added a red frame using Kat Scrappiness NEW A2 Frames die set, stamped a sentiment, and added a few sequins for embellishment.

 

Card Measurements:

White A2 Top Fold Card Base: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" (4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2")

Red Frame: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" x 1/4" 

 

Copic Markers:

Pinecone: E44, E43 (added sparkle with Spectrum Noir Clear)

Greenery: YG93

Berries: R27 (added Glossy Accents)

Skates: (Boot) W1, W0; (Bottom of Boot) C7; (Blade) C1

It's hard to believe that Christmas is only a few days away....YIKES!  I'm still working on creating some last minute packaging for some gift cards.  I came up with this using Lawn Fawn's Pillow Box die along with Reverse Confetti's Stitched Tag Trio and the To & From stamp from their With Love set.  I was inspired by the inspiration photo colors.
