We are half way through the latest challenge...
Christmas but Red and Green must not be seen!
My first project is a card made using one of this weeks new images.
Image - TEDDYBEA_170 coloured in Photoshop
All papers - Frost N Flakes- Nitwits
Snowflake - Memory Box Die.
Ivory Ribbon and pretty button - MeiFlower
brads - stash
I am going to enter this card into the following challenges.
Forever Friends - must include animal - Christmas is Coming
Make it Monday - always Anything Goes
Ladybug Crafts Ink TLT Challenge - #47 Winter Blues
Crafty Emma - #62 Snowflakes
I also decided to have a go at making a hanging ornament. I saw a few of these around blog land last Christmas and decided now was as good a time as any to have a try. It is made up of 20 circles of card, 5 of the ones through the middle contain the Teddy Bea image, the ones in between have a glittered die cut snowflake, with a sparkly gem in the centre and I have added a gem between each section. A big bow, beads and a beaded tassel finish it off.
