Are you ready for making "more" Christmas cards?
This month's challenge, hosted by our very talented Designer, Trina, is perfect for helping you do last-minute Christmas cards. She chose Non-traditional Colours as the theme.
We have Vicky (Crafting Clare's Paper Moments) as Guest Designer. Welcome, Vicky!
Here's my card:
[How I made the card]
1. Die-cut trees and the thin frame.
2. Stamped the sentiment (*1) and clear heat-embossed it.
3. Glued the trees and the frame on to the card front.
*1. I wanted to heat-emboss the sentiment, so I used Distress Oxide Ink instead of using dye ink. Hickory Smoke is the closest color to Sahara Sand.
Please check out the challenge site for inspiring sample cards made by our Designers and Vicky, and join this fun challenge!
