Christmas Card Challenge #48 -- Anything Goes

Sunday, October 26, 2014

There's a new challenge posted today at Christmas Card Challenges and this week, it's an anything goes challenge. So head over and link up your Christmas and holiday cards if you are making them.

I used a new Hero Arts stencil (although I couldn't find it to link it up below) to ink up my background in a variety of blue Distress Inks. I then cut my snowflake two times, once from Enchanted Evening card stock and once from 40lb vellum form Bazzill.  

I placed my sequins strategically so I could adhere the vellum snowflake in a couple of other places besides underneath the sentiment strip.

Happy Sunday.
LET'S GO SHOPPING

Oh, wow, this looks great, Alanna! I like that stencil and the colors you used. The vellum snowflake is wonderful and how smart are you to use the sequins to hide the adhesive. :)
