I made this quick little card the other evening and this is me just getting round to posting it. I thought I would make a plain card that would be quick to do and I could make a few of them and add to my stock of Christmas cards.
I have not used a sketch for this one as I just meant to do something plain but of course I couldn't help myself I had to add snowflakes, card candy, ribbon and buttons!
I used my Cuttlebug to emboss the front of my card. Then I used nesties to cut a scalloped circle and stamped this cute Penny Black image which I coloured with Promarkers. I added some card candy from Craftwork Cards. I added my favourite cuttlebug snowflake and Martha Stewart snowflake, both cut from glitter card. The sentiment is also from Craftwork Cards. I finished off by tying some white ribbon round the card and adding a button on top of the knot and another to the large snowflake. And that's it!
I think it will fit a few challenges.
Daring Cardmakers :- White with a hint of colour.
Allsorts :- Buttons.
Sophisticat challenge :- Snowflakes and sparkle.
The Pink Elephant :- Colour with your favourite medium - I used Promarkers.
Creative Card Crew :- Christmas.
I really quite like a white card with just embossing for texture and I think I might make a few more variations on this one.
I have another card to post so I will be back in a little while when I've taken a photo of it.
