Retro Merry Christmas...**TOP CUP Winner**






Working on last minute Christmas cards...a double challenge..combined Just Add Ink's colour challenge with Sunday Stamps' sketch challenge. Wasn't sure about the colour combination...but the two pattern papers worked together and decided to go with stamping the snowflakes on a simple stitched circle..layered on scalloped silver glimmer paper circle... Inked and coloured with Copics, the snowman image and accented with dazzling diamonds glitter.. Tied some silver twine around the layered lovely lipstick pattern paper.. Finished the card with the layered sentiment on the silver..Voila!

Deets: All Stampin Up except for pattern papers and stamps..



EDIT: Dec 29th..Great news to start the evening...Melissa chose my card as one of the Sunday Stamps' TOP CUP Winners..how exciting and a great way to finish 2018. Thank you Melissa and looking forward to the next Sunday Stamps challenge. :)



Thanks for dropping by.

Seasons' Greetings.
