Black and silver Christmas card

Hi and welcome.

The colour challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown this week is to use black and silver.  Not really my go to colours and this challenge has pushed me out of my comfort zone a bit. As always, neutrals such as black and white are allowed too…

The black and white snowflake dsp by Stampin Up made a good base.  I added silver glitter paper snowflakes die cut using the 3D snowflake embossing folder by Tim Holtz in both sizes.

The sentiment is from the Christmas to Remember stamp set, and the topper die cut from the Seasonal Labels die set, both by Stampin Up, and I added a die cut foliage sprig from the Holiday Greens die set by Tim Holtz.

I added some black half-backed pearls to the snowflake diecuts to finish.

I hope you’ve been inspired to join the challenge this week.

Enjoy your weekend

Christmas acetate shaker card

Hello and welcome.

The stash challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown this week is to use acetate. Perfect time to make a shaker card …

I cut a piece of dsp to size and inserted into an acetate bag, folding it on one edge to fit, then filled with snowflake sequins before sealing the bag.  A few snowflakes were adhered to the dsp too.

I mat and layered the shaker card and sentiment using sahara sand card by Stampin Up, and adhered it to a 6″ base card.

I hope you’ve been inspired to join the challenge this week.

Enjoy your weekend
