Our sponsor for this challenge is Meljen's Designs:
The DT were all given Meljen's images to play with...I used 'Cocoa Christmas Fairy' on my card, colouring her using watercolour pencils, and adding some sparkle with some Stickles. I took my inspiration from the colours in the photo...green, white & gold...embossing some green Core'dinations card using my Cuttlebug 'Swiss Dots' and 'Snowflakes' folders and Sizzix/BasicGrey 'Snowglobe' folder...sanding over the surface to reveal the lighter coloured core. I cut the snowflakes using Marianne Designs and Cuttlebug dies, then covered them with more Stickles. The gold lace is from Dunelm Mill.
I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
- Cute Card Thursday - So Distressing
- Meljen's - Anything Goes
- Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
- Sisterhood of Crafters - Diamonds, Pearls, Lace (I used Lace)
- Sweet Sketch Wednesday - Sketch
- Totally Stampalicious - Texture
This is really sweet Helen. Hugs, Claire x
