CHNC challenge 573

This is my design card for my CHNC challenge 573 -  please click on the link to find out what it's all about and I hope you'll be able to join in with your Christmas designs - anything goes as long as it's Christmas with the optional theme of  'use the word merry'.

I'm showing three similar cards using some offcuts of Christmas papers embellished with poinsettias and a Christmas felt wreath from The Works. Two of the cards are slimline ones which open tent wise and an A6 card that opens from the side. The 'Merry Christmas' sentiments are actually dark green although they look different here.

CHNC challenge 569

This is my design card for my CHNC challenge 569 -  please click on the link to find out what it's all about and I hope you'll be able to join in with your Christmas designs - anything goes as long as it's Christmas with the optional theme of  'use some glitter'.

The background of my card is a piece of paper from a pad bought long ago in Poundland. I stamped the lovely Penny Black caroling penguins with versamark onyx black and heat embossed using detail black powder. I used a quicky glue pen for the fluffy areas on the hats, adding some sparkly glitter. I did just a bit of colouring with alcohol markers and die cut with a todo decorative oval, using a large one to create a mat with an offcut of red pearlescent card with gold glitter. I added two snippets of gold glitter tape that had been left over from a previous make. The sentiment was created with my dymo letratag label maker.
