Wednesday ... and a very MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all

Morning readers,

NO MORE SLEEPS! Christmas is finally here and I hope you all have a marvellous day ... I'm not expecting many of you to be about in blogland but ... to those of you who are - MERRY CHRISTMAS

I've a make to share with you today ...

My Artist Trading Card, measuring just 3½" x 2½"

Materials used:

  • ATC blank
  • Snippets of card in black, pink, white and designer paper in blue & white
  • I ran my white snippet through my Big Shot inside a cuttlebug "script" embossing folder before using a makeup brush and Versafine Clair twilight ink to highlight the text
  • All it needed (IMHO) was the die cut foliage to finish the ATC

I'll be entering the above make for the following challenges:-

  1. Creative Fingers - challenge No. 291 - ANYTHING GOES
  2. A Cut Above - Dec challenge - ANYTHING GOES (with DIES)
  3. Love Those Pretty Papers - Dec challenge - ANYTHING GOES (with patterned paper) + (OPTIONAL) CHRISTMAS
  4. Allsorts - challenge No. 812/3 - USE YOUR DIES
  5. Polkadoodles - challenge No. 50 - ANYTHING GOES


MERRY CHRISTMAS ONE AND ALL
thanks so much for visiting my blog in 2024

Great ATC and it's reminded me I have that script embossing folder - maybe time it came out of retirement. Have a great Christmas
