I really have to apologize..... this cold is just kicking the stuffing out of me. One day I feel a little better so I run around trying to get caught up, then the next day I feel horrible again. The sinus problems seem to be easing up but I'm just so sluggish feeling. Ugh, when will this end?!?
I have basically done no commenting and totally forgot today was new challenge day at One Stitch at a Time,. Yikes Choccy and teamies, I am so sorry!!! Challenge #138 is everybody's favourite challenge; ANYTHING GOES. It won't last for longer than 6 days folks so get those cards linked up fast, lol.
Anyway, I am going to share my card with you that I made for this week's challenge and I just have to say that I LOVE this image that Nataliya and I got to play with this week. It was my turn to choose one and I am on a Christmas card kick again; sorry Nataliya.
I decided to make another easel card this week:
Full View
Close-up of handmade stick pins & deckle edge
Close-up of all the flowers
Tried to photograph the glitter but it didn't turn out too well :(
I used my Sakura Clear Star Gelly Roll pen to outline all the snow on the church, houses, snowman, shrubs and the trees.
Close-up of these super sparkley white poinsettias and you can just see the glitter around the snowman.
Close-up of the top half of the card.
Close-up of the bottom half, sentiment and those gorgeous flowers. I added gems to the centers of the hydrangea blooms.
With a selection of their gorgeous die cuts.... To win this you must use a SBDS product. Dont forget to put a # after your name if you use one of our products in your entry.Just so that Choccy doesn't miss you.
If you want to enter using a none Stitchy Bear Digital Store product/ image then thats fine... But you will be placed into a separate draw and that winner will receive a $3 gift voucher to spend at our store.

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderfull card! I really whish we will have this much snow at Christmas this year. It´s so romantic :o) xx Bianca
ReplyDeleteBianca above stole what I was going to say. I completely agree that it's a very romantic card. I adore all the little extras and am lusting after those gorgeous blue flowers, so where did they come from?
ReplyDeleteLin xx
Hi Lin; if you mean the flowers with the gems in the centers, they are actually from a stem of silk flowers I bought at Michaels a year ago. If I see a stem of silk flowers that I would like to use for cards, I buy it then pull it apart. I have a lot of flowers that have come from the artificial flower departmrnt in stores.
