It feels like I have been bitten by the holiday crafting bug and now I am in full holiday swing. First up, a card using the beautiful colors at this week's Color Throwdown #414.
I really like the delicate patterns in the newest What the Doodle by Papertrey--a set of ornaments. I stamped an entire card front, using my Misti to help with alignment, and then decided to only use the bottom half of my paper. I'm sure I'll use the rest some other time. I am also entering this card at Just Add Ink #333: Just add G (green ornaments).
More of those ornaments on my next card--this time they are die cut, white embossed and sponged with Distress ink.
I am entering this card at Christmas Card Challenges #44: Decorations and Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Totally Resistible.
Last up is another snowy winter scene--perfect for Simon Says Monday Challenge: Explore the World. I am also entering this card at Merry Monday #217: Retro/Vintage. I used the same PTI Winter Village as I used in my earlier Merry Monday entry to create my vintage scene.
Thanks for Visiting
