Here we go! My cards! The first one is made with the fabby image called Ice Skating Santa. I did use the pre coloured image this week, just to speed things up and because Veronica's digital colouring is smashing, don't you think? I have also paired the image up with a digital kit from Simple Stories but at the this point I can't remember the name of it. I am sorry about that. It is on my other PC. My other PC is in quarantine as my kids are spending way too much time on it. We have hidden the electrical cord and I have no energy to go and get it at this moment. LoL
Anyway, I used one of the old but fabby sketches that was made for the Papertake weekly challenges and used that as a starting point for this card. Great way when you feel a bit stressed and really don't know what to do with your card making, or scrapbooking. So that one was used and I printed my dp's, some cutting and gluing and finshing off with some silver sequins that I added a pearl in each center of the snowflakes. I also added "Merry Christmas" in Swedish with lovely bold letter thickers from a brand I yet have to remember. Maybe a bit big but it was fun to use them and the give a nice sparkle to the card. I also added some glitter stickles in two shades to the ice that Mr Santa is skating on. I think it was ice and turquoise.
Sorry this post is really long, but here we go. Yet another pre coloured image from my beloved Shelter. This one is called Christmas decorations. I have never coloured this image before and I still have that pleasure waiting for me. It's a very sweet image, don't you think? This one have I paired with some designer papers from Studio Light called Winter feelings No 59. The green / turquoise was a perfect match to the colours in this image I used. I just reinforced the colours a bit by adding some glitter both from a pen and some stickles.
For the first time did I manage to use the Bazil cardstock called Flamingo. Such cool colour and that was also a perfect match to the image. Just an hour when everything came together. Just perfect! Well, the card isn't perfect but the colour matching is great. LoL For this card did I use yet another sketch from Papertake Weekly. It's a great place for inspiration. Just a tip for you all.
For decoration did I use a golden ribbon with very light cloth on it so it's a see thrue ribbon. I love that ribbon, but it's very broad so it's not always I can use it. A few pearl hearts in brown and some alpha block stickers from Panduro in cream and with some glossy accents over as I like the feeling of it on my cards.
Ok then people of the cardmaking world. It's over and out from me for today. I wish you a great day and I see you tomorrow again.
Take care and do something that makes you happy!
Love n hugs
