The Jingle Belles want to see "Winter Fun" this time. I went with some animals have fun sledding in the snow:
Stamped on watercolour paper, watercoloured, trimmed with wonky stitched die, bordered in copper, and a bit of glue and glitter along the snowline.
The Penny Black Saturday Challenge is "Anything Goes". I made a thank you card:
Using my MISTI, I inked the agapanthus up with various Distress markers, one colour
at a time, spritzing after each colour and stamping, then going back to
do the next colour.
I bordered it with a dark green, heat embossed the sentiment in white on
the same dark green, and added a few iridescent gemstones that have the
same dark blue and purple in them.

Stamps - Craft Emotions, Make an Impression sentiment
Ink - Versafine Onyx Black
Paper - watercolour paper, cream cs, copper shimmer cs
Size - A2
Accessories - MFT Wonky Stitched rectangle die, watercolour paints, glitter

The first card is perfect for the Winter Fun theme, Susan! The horse and dog are adorable, and the sparkle of the snow is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteLove the various blue/purple colors of your agapanthus. The dark green border and sentiment strip beautifully tie to the color of the leaves.
