Noel card

This is my second card for the Muse Christmas Visions challenge this week. This time I was inspired by Elizabeth's snowflake card - see below.   I really liked the die cut snowflakes and sentiment and the use of the sequins which I tried to replicate in my card.  I created a background using Distress Oxides - I love the slightly chalky effect these create. 

Materials used:-
Distress oxides - Broken China and Pistachio
Dies - Lawn Fawn Stitched Snowflakes and Lawn Fawn Stitched Square Stackables
Sentiment - Sizzix Tim Holtz Holiday Words Script
Sequins - Neat and Tangled snow white

Muse Christmas Visions

I can't believe it's nearly a year since I posted anything on my blog. It's been a busy year with moving house and not having access to my crafty stuff.  However I thought I'd make a start on my Christmas cards by taking part in challenges.

I was inspired by Elizabeth's cards on Muse Christmas Visions this week.  I especially liked her second card with the branches and the way she had coloured the sky which I have tried to replicate.

 

 

Materials used:-

Stamp - Penny Black "etched branches"

Sentiment die - Sizzix Tim Holtz Holiday Words Script

Distress inks - Broken China, Tumbled Glass and Shaded Lilac

Perfect Pearls spray
