5 in one challenge


Another Christmas card which is for 5 challenges! The sketch is from A Spoonful of Sugar, Cupcake Craft Challenge want a Christmas card, Cute Card Thursday are looking for Xmas in July, Colour Create want blue and white and Saturday Challenge are looking for spots and stripes. There are spots on the umbrella, his coat, her boots, a snowflake and one of the papers. There also stripes on that paper and stripes on her tights and scarf and his boots (or are they his socks?).

The image is a Rachelle Anne Miller stamp called Rainy Days but I think it is perfect for a snowy card. I added glitter to the snow at the bottom and coloured it with Promarkers. The papers are from Flower Soft and Forever Friends from last year. The card is embossed with Cuttlebug Divine Swirl and the snowflakes were bought in USA. Why didn't I buy 2 packets, they are so lovely? Gems from stash.

Hi Marianne, Wow you have been busy since I lasted visited your blog. Lots of gorgeous cards! You left a comment asking where I got my MS border punch. I got mine from Stampeeze but they are currently out of stock like most places I think.
