Well it's just under an hour until tonight's no-doubt less sensational episode of The Great British Bake-Off, so the perfect opportunity to share my Christmas card for this week's sketch prompt.
Here's a reminder of the sketch:
I decided to reach for some festive stamps this week and the perfect set was the lovely Heartfelt Holidays stamps and dies from WPlus9's 2013 Christmas release.
Paper: Crate Paper, Pebbles, MME
Stamps: WPlus9
Dies: WPlus9, MFT, Sizzix
Button: October Afternoon
Other: hemp twine, Stickles, 3D foam
I love that leafy wreath-like border stamp, and I've always liked the banner in this set. I dusted the top of it and inside the frame with dots of Frosted Lace Stickles to look like snow. The snowman is stamped on cream cardstock with Versacolor Cement pigment ink. It creates the illusion of a nice vintagey-white - perfect for snowmen!
Well I've got to get my desk cleared off here, and then I might finally get a moment to play with these lovely new Lawn Fawn goodies.
I really need to get ahead with craftiness this week as it's going to be a very busy weekend!
What a lovely card Nat. I still love that wreath it is so pretty but I haven't managed to get my hands on it yet. I just love the way you've dusted the top of the banner with stickles.
