Festive Friday is asking us to celebrate the Twelve Days of Christmas. We had to include at least three items from their list (see at the bottom of this post). I have the partridge and the pear, there is gold in my background paper, and it's a Christmas card.
Next up is a card for the Tic Tac Toe Challenge. I chose the diagonal line that says Snow / Arctic Animal / Slimline.
The snowy background was created with a snowflake embossing folder and vellum. I took a piece of navy blue cs and die cut "winter wishes" along the bottom. I taped the vellum above that and folded it over the top edge and secured the top of it on the wrong side. I die cut the polar bears and layered that over the bottom edge of the vellum (thus hiding the tape behind the vellum). It's all added to a mini slimline card base.
NBUS (Never Before Used Stuff) challenge - I've never used that stamp before.
Supplies for card 1:
Stamps - Inky Doodles
Ink - Versafine Onyx Black
Paper - watercolour paper, K&Co dp, cream cs
Size - A2
Accessories - watercolour paints, Lil Inker stitched rectangle die, fun foam
Supplies for card 2:
Paper - white and navy cs, vellum

ReplyDeleteYou did a wonderful job of combining the elements for your partridge card. It is great. Love the polar bears too.
ReplyDeleteLove that partridge/pear tree image, and what a perfect paper for the background to go with it. Beautiful card, thanks for joining us at Festive Friday!
ReplyDeleteSusan, both cards are so beautiful! The slim design with the polar bears and vellum snowflake background is just frosty goodness and works perfectly with the tttc board. Thanks so much for sharing with us this week at the Tic Tac Toe Challenge!

Wonderful partridge card using a great combination of the items on the challenge list, Susan! The image is so pretty with your coloring.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love how you made the best use of the mini slimline card size for the second card. The snowflake embossed vellum piece is just beautiful, allowing slightly to see the color of the navy blue behind.

These are adorable. My fav is your polar bears slimline card. I’m unfamiliar with the FF challenge, but it looks fun.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely pair of cards. I love the slimline polar bears and your partridge and pear tree card is fabulous. And, of course, I know have that going around in my head :-). Thank you for sharing this with us at Festive Friday this week and hope to see you again in 2023. Jaydee
