I'm very proud to announce that I was asked by Darlene and Diane to be on the Design Team of their Peace on Earth Challenge. Given how much I love making Christmas cards, I was thrilled!
It's an "anything Christmas goes" challenge but there is always an inspiration board. It inspired me to make this card:
The vintage Santa image is stamped and then coloured with coloured pencils. I added the December 25 sentiment and trimmed the panel. In keeping with the vintage look, I sponged some Distress Antique Linen around the edges.
It's bordered with red cs and then some dp that ties in with the swirls in the vintage image.
Here is the inspiration board for this challenge:
I was inspired by the Santa. I have several Santa stamps but the circular snow globe he is holding inspired me to use this particular stamp as it has the Santa inside a circle.
Please come and join us in the latest Peace on Earth Challenge. You have until Thursday January 13 to link up your card!
Supplies:
Stamps - Deep Red Vintage Santa, Penny Black December 25
Ink - Versafine Clair Twilight
Paper - white and red cs, unknown dp
Size - A2
Accessories - coloured pencils
