| 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Sketch |
The first challenge of 2015 over at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown is a fabulous sketch challenge. This is the second card that I have created based on the sketch. It's one of those sketches that offers endless possibilities. For this card, I began by cutting the snowman image from a piece of gift wrap. I inked around the outer edges of a piece of white cardstock using blue ink, then attached the snowman image to this with blue brads. It's been awhile since I've used brads to attach anything to one of my cards. I really need to start using them more often. I cut a white snowflake embossed piece of cardstock into two triangles and layered these over a blue mat. I used only blue and white to maintain that winter feel. It's a great combination for a Christmas card.
What a darling snowman! I can understand why you wanted to use him on a card. :) Thanks for joining us a second time this week at 52{C}CT.
