Every second Friday over at As You See It Challenges, we have a new challenge for you and today is the day. This time it's a Recipe Challenge and you are given some specific ingredients that you have to use to build your project. Here's our Challenge banner:
As a Design Team member, I have to do a sample card for the challenge and I felt for the first time this year, that I was almost done with making Christmas cards! Mind you, this doesn't have to be a Christmas card, that's not specified anywhere on the challenge, but with snowflakes, red or green and mitten symbols on the graphic, it does make you think of Christmas! AND it's our last challenge before Christmas, too, so there's that!
I used a potpourri of different sets including the Classic Christmas 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper, the Cherish the Season stamp set, the Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack, and the So Many Snowflakes Dies to get in all the elements. Take a look:
- On a base of Thick Whisper White cardstock, I embossed the sentiment from the Cherish the Season stamp set with Gold Embossing Powdeer.
- I added some of the Cherry Cobbler DSP from the Classic Christmas DSP which is only available until January 4th. Around the piece of DSP I added a piece of the Shaded Spruce ribbon and the Gold Cord from the Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack.
- I used the Brass Brushed Metallic Cardstock from which to die cut a couple of snowflake die cuts using the So Many Snowflakes die set.
We've been decorating at our house and I'm getting back to it tonight. We've got our tree up:
I don't always put this much effort into it, because we usually go away for Christmas to be with one of our 3 daughters, but this year it looks like we'll be on our own, so we're having fun enhancing our environment! Just bought a whole whack of jigsaw puzzles, too! We're ready!
