Love At Christmas!



This card is for:-

1. Papertake Weekly - Sketch 22

2. C.R.A.F.T. - challenge # 14 - Embossing

3. Colour Create - Challenge # 26 - Ruby,Cream, Gold and Gems


I decided to do a Christmas card even though it wasn't needed for any of the challenges, as when I saw the colours for Colour Create, Ruby, Cream and Gold they seemed to suit a Christmas card to me. They also asked for us to use Gems as an optional extra, there's a tiny star gem on the i in the sentiment, then 3 gems in the corner and a heart above the boy and girl.

Papertake weekly gave another fabulous sketch, it was so easy to use and ideal for using again.
Finally C.R.A.F.T. wanted to see some embossing, so the cream card and the gold paper has been embossed with leaves, but isn't too clear on the photo.


Recipe:-


Stamps - Sarah Kay Christmas Magic, sentiment,


Papers - My minds eye,


Colouring Mediums - Distress inks, H2o's,


Tools - Fiskars texture plate, Sizzix snowflakes,


Embellishments - Gems, ribbon Anita's organza, Glamout dust,
