ATSM #88 - HOLIDAY

We are back with another amazing challenge this week at Addicted to stamps and more... HOLIDAY which opens up a wide range of ideas, from projects for any festive holiday or for some holiday destinations or whatever comes to your mind when you think about holiday... There are numerous possibilities. We also have very talented Guest Designer Anni of Annikarten, joining us back this week with a very adorable card :) Now to my DT card, I went with the Christmas theme for my Holiday card...

To make this card, I was inspired by the sketch at Retrosketches #107 this week, the beautiful photo inspiration of ornaments at Merry Monday #101 - Red, gray and white . To make this card, I first die cut a partial circle from white card base, scored lines on it. Cut out a red panel to go underneath. The mitten are free digitals from The Alley way stamps which were colored with Spectrum Noir markers.
rest I adhered all the elements on card base, embellishes with some sequin stars and wrote the sentiment.
 
There is a lot more lovely inspiration from the DT, Please visit our challenge blog here. The winner will receive a wonderful prize from our sponsor this week Stamplorations. Take a peek at their store here

I am excited to see what you will come up with ....

I have another card, this one made for a few challenges :) I was inspired by the Case Study #183 where the talented and one of my favorite crafter Joni Andaya of Papel with love is the Muse. I was also inspired by the House of cards March #2 - Add a button Classic/ CAS challenge. The buttons added are special to me as I got these wooden buttons from India :) and finally I am linking it up to Seize the birthday - Topping of stitches



 
Thank you so much for visiting my blog and leaving me a comment :)
