Christmas Card Challenge #41 -- Think Skinny

Sunday, September 7, 2014

Another Sunday is here which means a new challenge at Christmas Card Challenges was posted. This week's optional challenge is to think skinny.  I interpreted this a bit different and went for a skinny panel as compared to my card front.

I had fun blending some distress inks and pulled out my NBUS Winter Wonderland set from Mama Elephant. I love the silhouette images in this set. There are some gorgeous sentiments as well but I just didn't know where to put one so I'll add one to the inside of my card.

As always, I truly appreciate you taking time out of your day to stop by. Hugs!
