Colleen is hosting the CAS Christmas Challenge this month and she chose Peace as the challenge.
Here's my card:
[How I made the card]
1. Dry embossed the birch trees on a piece of white card stock.
2. Die cut the bird and attached it to the dry embossed front panel.
3. Die cut the sentiment from a piece of cork sheet (*1) and glued it to the front panel.
4. Glued sequins to the front panel.
5. Adhered the front panel to the card base.
*1. Glued a piece of copy paper to the back of the cork sheet as backing.
This is so simple that you can easily mass-produce it. I may thank myself in November. ;-P
The challenge is open until February 24th.
Thanks for visiting me today!

ReplyDeleteYour Birch forest in Winter is really a very Peace-filled space for your lovely dove, Hideko! Gluing the paper backing to what can be a crumbly material was a smart move! a gorgeous Christmas card for your collection, and this challenge! xx

Love this graceful bird, Hideko! It's the perfect size to be flying through this forest. The cork sentiment is a fun addition. I love the added texture and dimension it adds! The light blue card base makes this card seem even more peaceful. Having quick and easy Christmas cards like this will be very helpful if you need extras in a hurry.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful winter scene, Hideko! LOVE the white on white dry embossing ... so pretty and lots of depth and texture. That dove is gorgeous. So delicate and beautiful ... and perfect out of blue. Love the cork peace. Lovely mix of elements that all work perfectly together. Great work! xx
