The challenge smells a lot like christmas, so I bet we're gonna see a lot of christmas cards for this challenge. Without further ado, here's my card:
As you can tell by my images I've actually gone and made a christmas card for this challenge. Just loove that gorgeous image and it fits so well with the reds and greens.
My recipe:
red, white and green bazill
DP from authentique
Half pearls from stortyteller and Kort & Godt
Diecuts: magnolia doohickey swirl, cheery lynn: French pastry, oval
mavy snowflake punch
Lace from WOC
All edges distressed and coloured with pumice stone distress ink
star dust stickles
crushed velvet lily white flock
My image is called Santa's arrival and is of course to be bought at the Digi Doodle Shop. It's coloured with these promarkers: dusky pink, ivory, chestnut, cocoa, cinnamon, caramel, sandstone, crimson, poppy, berry red, marsh green, moss, pear green, primrose, cornflower, umber, warm grey 5,4, cool grey, 4,3,2,1
