It's officially time for me to begin making Christmas cards and I am ready! Jaydee gives us a festive array of colors in The Paper Players Challenge # 617. They are sure to get you in the spirit of holiday card-making!
I love making color blended backgrounds but this time I let the paper do the work!
I began with a paper from the Craft Consortium Patina pack that has a gorgeous textured look. I assembled snowflakes from a few different sets, inked them up with Versamark, and embossed them in white directly on to the patterned paper. The sentiments are from PTI. Stacking three layers of the CHRISTMAS die cut pieces gave dimension and they are topped with silver foil for the shine! And of course a few rhinestones embellish the snowflake centers.
Thanks so much for your visit today. I sure hope you will check out the work of the DT as it is amazing! I look forward to seeing your cards in our gallery!
