The countdown to Christmas is approaching fast. so with this in mind the new Challenge Theme over at Sugar Creek Hollow is 'Vintage Christmas' and you can make a card, ornament or gift.
Please pop over for all the details and welcome out Guest Designer for this week Avril Branthwaite.
My choice is a card . The base layer is embossed with a snowflake stencil then shaded with a dusting of [ blue] Pans Pastels.
The image is from the Figgy Pudding images set by Gecko Galz.
My boys loved sledging when it snowed, I won't mention how old they are now, it was a long................................. time ago.
As usual my vintage/shabby chic card features a bit of lace and ribbon, as well as torn edges on the layers.
The snowflake die cuts is a Memory Box die.
I will also be joining the current Craft Room challenge the theme is Vintage Christmas.
Thank you for stopping by, I always appreciate your comments.
