Voila mes cartes pour le challenge sketch de « Sheetload of Cards » et le sujet ‘Noël en juillet’ donc j’ai commencé mes cartes de Noël bien tôt ! J’ai utilisé des dessins de le CD Kerudoc Création ‘Hiver’ qui j’ai imprimé sur papier et acétate. Quel couleur vous préférez ?
Last month I discovered a great ezine
'Sheetload of Cards' blog and when I downloaded this month's it just demanded I do something with it and in fact I did 2 things which are unusual for me: 1. I printed the whole thing off and had it sitting on the desk instead of just being saved on disk to maybe look at later (great designs in there); 2. I made Christmas cards before November ! I usually find it hard to create out of season but wow did I make sheetloads! I printed off several papers and toppers and just mixed and matched to the same sketch adding ribbons and gems, inking edges, etc as I went. No waste bits of paper and lots and lots of cards...Which is your favourite colourway? I really like the soft Lilac :
and the Teal (love the velvet ribbon too)
and a few more mixing colours and patterns:
My husband likes the organza ribbon over the paper in the one above, and here's an acetate version:
and then I looked at the mini version ezine this month and made one of those too!
All papers and toppers from
Kerudoc Création Winter Collection; HOTP Icy rainbow ribbons colour match perfectly, as do Brilliance pearlescent inks in SkyBlue and Purple. Also used ribbons and card from stash, Papermania snowflake brads and adhesive gems, Silver ink pad, cuttlebug embossing, Holographic glitterglue.
these are wonderful! I love the gorgeous purple and blue hues (love snowflakes and purple!) and all that fabulous sparkle! Wonderful cards, tfs and best of luck!!! Hugs :)
