Hi everyone,
It's already time for a reminder post for our CAS Christmas Challenge!
The challenge for this month is:
1. Stenciled the poinsettias with Distress Inks on a piece of white cardstock.
2. Stamped the script with Distress Oxide Ink over the stenciled image.
3. Stenciled the poinsettias again with VersaMark and clear heat-embossed the image.
4. Trimmed the poinsettia cardstock to a size a little bigger than the window frame, and added Stickles to the center of the flowers.
5. Die-cut the window frame three times from white cardstock and glued the pieces together.
6. Adhered the poinsettia piece to the back of the window frame.
7. Dry embossed a piece of white cardstock and glued it onto the card base.
8. Glued the entire window frame onto the front panel.
You still have until July 24th to play along. Come and join us here!
Ink: Distress Ink (Candied Apple, Barn Door, Lucky Clover, Peeled Paint - Ranger), Distress Oxide Ink (Vintage Photo - Ranger), VersaMark (Tsukineko)

ReplyDeleteWow! I love this, Hideko! The poinsettias are so bright and pretty with the embossing and I love how the script blends into the background! Perfectly framed too.
