Today I'm playing with Jo's Christmas Kickstart Challenge.
Scandinavian Holiday
I pulled out an old Stampin' Up! set and colored it with markers.
I also used some SU heart dies to cut the image out and another heart to
give it a little contrast from the embossed white background.
Pretty simple and fun to do.
How's your Christmas stash coming?
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

What a unique Christmas card...different! Purr-fect EF for it and love the second heart die in same color as bow to set off the image.
ReplyDeleteWow! Bonnie, this is absolutely stunning - I just love the folk art birds and sprigs, and the subtle embossed background, and the twine is the perfect finishing touch :)
ReplyDeleteThere it is!! I was so hoping someone would bring out their embossing folders - this one is particularly perfect, Bonnie! Lovely Scandi-stamping, too!

This is charming. I love the background embossing folder and those sweet little birds.
ReplyDeleteThere you go again using the best EF, Bonnie. It gives a beautiful background for your sweet image. Fab take on the challenge. xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect Scandinavian design, Bon! I love the warm cozy sweater background with the sweet heart appliqued with lovebirds and flowers! I would buy this sweater and wear it if I saw it in the store!! Hugs, Dolly

Love the Scandinavian look to your very beautiful card. Such pretty colouring and the design is fabulous x A very slow start my end with Christmas card making x
ReplyDeleteThis is adorable, Bonnie! Definitely a Scandanivian image and the dry embossing is too. Great layering and colours. xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I love the embossed background and folk center. A beautiful card, Bonnie xx
ReplyDeleteWow, I love this card, Bonnie! It's so beautiful and perfect for the Scandinavian challenge theme. The dry embossing on the white background and the bright coloring are so refreshing. It's a great idea to layer the Kraft heart in-between to pop the main image.
