It's the second Wednesday of a new month, so that means it's time for a new ABC Christmas Challenge! Wilma is the host, and the themes are:
'C is for Clean & Simple'
&
'D is for Distressing'
There's a little prize on offer from Wilma for the lucky winner:
I was one of the (many!) lucky winners of one of Di's Pixie's Snippets Playground Christmas Grand Draw prizes...and my lovely prize was a couple of Sweet Dixie stamps, so I used both of them to make my cards for this challenge. I used Sweet Dixie - 'Carol Singing' to make a simple one layer Clean & Simple card. I stamped it directly on to a kraft card blank, along with a sentiment from the 'Festive Phrases' set by Funky Fossil, then used watercolour pencils to colour the image.
I used 'Little Tweetheart' by Sweet Dixie, paired with papers from the 'Jolly Santa' pad and another unnamed pad by The Works. I distressed all of the edges, then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen.The sentiment is from the 'Winter Blessings' set from the 'Winter White' collection by Crafter's Companion, and the snowflake twill tape was from Home Sense.
