CCAYR February


It's the first day of the month and that means there's a new challenge on Christmas cards all year round. The February challenge is all about blue and white - no other colours, with the exceptions of skin, hair, fur, feathers, but try to keep everything else to blue and white only. Optional: add a heart - this would be an embellishment, charm etc. Please click on the link and see the inspirational crafting of the rest of the team.

The challenge is being sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs, who kindly supplied the digital image, 'Little Honey's Tinkerbell', that I've used for my first card. I coloured Tinkerbell with spectrum noir pens and dotted her wings with quicky glue, put a few glue streaks in her hair and then added some Art Institute ultra fine glitter. I die cut the image with a Nellie Snellen die, brushing the edges with stormy sky distress ink. The sentiment was computer generated and printed. The ribbled snowflakes were from Hobbycraft and I added a little padded heart. The background paper is a  piece from a magazine freebie.
