I'm back to Christmas cards with this post.
Here's a card for the Double D "Something with a Handle" challenge. Usually their wonderful mood boards inspire my card but this time I had to skip it and search my stamps and dies for a handle. I found a lovely NBUS stamp so I can also enter it in Darnell's NBUS Challenge, and it's between the 25th and the end of the month so can enter it in Rudolph Days March Challenge.
Stamped, watercoloured, trimmed with a hemstitch die, bordered with dark red cs, and put on a cream card base.
And today's twofer is for Christmas Kickstart "Snowflakes are Winter's Butterflies":
I've been using Jennifer Maguire's technique a lot lately (seen in this video).I embossed bright aqua blue foil cs with the snowflake embossing folder, then sanded the raised part, exposing the white cs underneath the blue foil layer.
I added two snowflakes die cut from sparkly cs. The sentiment on the top right is a wax seal that I made while at a friend's house.
