Sparkly Christmas


 

It's time for a new challenge at Time Out. For Challenge #253, we challenge you to be SPARKLY. This is our final challenge of 2023. We will be taking the rest of December off, then we will return with a new challenge on January 4th, 2024. Wishing you a beautiful holiday season, however you celebrate it, and a happy, healthy and prosperous new year.

I used my new Gina K. Holiday Tapestry stamp set to create my card. I love everything about this beautiful and versatile set. Christmas and Hanukkah sentiments are included.

Let Your Heart Sparkle




This card was born when I saw the latest Color Hues Challenge, AND when I saw THIS card and the gorgeous holographic cardstock it was made with. I had to have the cardstock, and I had to CASE SusanB's card. Instead of a snowflake background, I used Sizzix Christmas Tree Pattern 3D Embossing Folder. I applied Silver ink to the flat side of the Embossing folder before running it through my die cutting/embossing machine to add some silver to the paper. It is hard to see because the paper is very shimmery and did not take a lot of the ink, but I still love the way it looks. I (Glimmer) foiled many sentiments yesterday with silver foil, and now I have a bunch to use! I thought this one was perfect for this card. I know I will be making many versions of it. I bought 20 sheets of this White Lava Holographic Cardstock from Your Paper Insider. Check out their story and their wonderful products. Best Customer Service EVER!

Christmas Cardinal



It's time for a new Challenge at The Four Seasons. We have moved on to Winter. As always, we have a mood board for inspiration but you can create anything as long as it has a WINTER theme.

I was inspired by that plump cardinal sitting on the mailbox backed with all those lovely pines. To create my card, I used a newly acquired Cardinal die paired with an embossed background and hot foiled sentiment that had been sitting in my snippet box. 

Please head on over to the Challenge Blog and see what the Design Team has created for your inspiration. Then grab a cuppa, put on some music, and start creating! See you in the gallery!
