WWC176 - Kath's All About Christmas Challenge

Are you ready to add to your Christmas card stash? Want to get a headstart on Christmas cards so you are not scrambling at the last minute? Kath has the solution for you this week!

A couple of weeks ago, I shared a card I made from bits and pieces that were laying around on my craft table. You can check it out here.

Today I have another one!

The elements on this card had all been created for other projects, down to the Crumb Cake cardstock. On the tree layer, I started by using my sponge brayer to apply Powder Pink, Berry Burst, and Fresh Fig inks, leaving the center area the lightest.

The trees are stamped with the pine tree from Lovely as a Tree in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The sparkle is Dazzling Diamonds which I applied by first spattering some watered-down Tombow Liquid Glue before sprinkling with the glitter.

For the sentiment and snowflakes I used stamps from a Paper Pumpkin kit, in Fresh Fig and Tranquil Tide on Very Vanilla cardstock.

A scrap of lace trim provides an accent between this layer and the Copper Foil circle diecut with Stitched Shapes thinlits.

I'll have to do another clean-up session as things are piling up again. It's fun to do and surprises me as to how many cards I can complete in just a couple of hours.
