It's July!! Ack! Where is this year going? Have you gotten started on your Christmas cards yet? Well, it's time. And we have a new challenge from Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra to help you along. As always, we are a month long, Anything Goes (as long as it's Christmas-related) challenge and our sponsor is the fabulous Bugaboo Stamps. Here is the card I created using one of their adorable images:
Isn't that angel just the sweetest?! I colored the letters with a very subtle ombre and added some wink of stella on top. I also added it to the wings of the angel. You can see it a bit in the next photo:The ribbon was a little bitty scrap from my bits and pieces pile and the button was left over from a long ago sewing project. Together they were the perfect finishing touches.
I hope you will play along with us this month, I can't wait to see what you create.
