Time for another card swap - CM June swap cards – Christmas & Sketch (once again, I was extremely late in making and sending these cards)
Card #1 – Christmas
But I went through my Christmas Stamps/Dies & papers and very slowly a plan came together.
I stamped up some images got from Facebook Marketplace (I think) and hand coloured with a soft watercolour using my inks, then added a touch of Kindy Glitz/Stickles.
The centre panel was trimmed, then affixed to some Christmas DP using double-sided tape, which was then attached for the 300gsm cardbase, again using DS tape.
Linking Card #1 with the following challenges:
Christmas Crafts All Year Round - July Challenge 'M, N, O' - I chose 'N' Naughty or Nice
Critter Crazy Challenge Blog #112 - cute reindeer & snowman critters
Card #2 – Sketch + Christmas
This card came together quite quickly, once I was in the Christmas mood :) I have used some DP that came with my 2025 Secret Santa present - it has been such a great paper pad to have on hand.
I
stamped up the Santa and sentiment from the MFT Jingle All the Way set
and hand cut the Santa out. I was going to just place the Santa on a
diecut circle to fit with the sketch, but I remembered I had some
'wobbles' somewhere in my stash ....... 30 minutes later, I finally
found them after putting them away somewhere safe LOL
None of the usual bling for this card ...... but I am quite pleased with how this card turned out.
