Here's some more sponging for
The challenge closes on the 24th so there's still time.
Our challenge this month is....
The bells were stamped on a snippet of Whisper White and heat embossed.
Then I sponged some ink over the embossing (emboss resist) and punched them out.
The edges of the punched holly leaves have been sponged and shaped
and added to the tops of the bells.
I love this wire twine for shaped bows. It ties beautifully and curls the way
I want it too.
I hope you'll visit

This is such a pretty card Bonnie I love the embossed pine branches in the background and then the pretty bells and holly and love the nice strong blue in the background and for the sentiment too. I hope you have a lovely Christmas Bonnie and I am looking forward to seeing your wonderful cards throughout 2017. x
ReplyDeleteThis EF looks gorgeous with the splendid blue bells. The holly was the perfect topper, and I must look for this silver wire. It certainly did shape into a lovely bow. A wonderful Christmas Eve share! TFS & Hugs. Merry Christmas too. I know Santa will be very generous to you, as you've been very good ALL year long! LOL
