Hi there, just another quick card today.........thinking I better get a move on with my Christmas cards or I won't get them all done on time!
I've used this weeks sketch ABS043 from
Annabelle Stamps - I flipped it on it's side.
The stamp is by Crafty Individuals, I stamped it in Versafine Vintage Sepia ink and distressed it with some Tim Holtz Old Paper Distress Ink and given Santa's hair and beard a little bling by coating it with Ranger Rock Candy Distress Stickles.
Patterned Paper is by AED - very glittery! Cardstock is Stampin' Up Almost Amethyst, I've also used silver mirror board as a mat for the image and PP, dark blue organza ribbon is the only embellishment.
Hopefully the close-up below shows the bling on Santa a little better.
This card also qualifies for the following challenges:
Papertake Weekly - Anything goes plus add some bling.
Crafty Individuals - Winter Wonderland.
The Pink Elephant - TPE123 Distressing.
Thanks for looking, as always I appreciate any comments you might leave me!
