Guest Designing for Christmas Kickstart

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm excited to be Guest Designing for  the 50th Christmas Kickstart Challenge!


This month's challenge is Santa and Friends and I had the perfect stamp for  it.

The party has been stamped with Memento ink and colored with
Copic Sketch Markers.

I smiled the whole time I was working on this, except when
I tried to splatter snow in the background and got a glob in the wrong place. Grrr!
I was quite disheartened, thinking I'd have to start over, but those
snowflake sequins came to the rescue.

Lost Coast Designs is providing a prize for this challenge.

Hope to see you in the gallery!
 


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

  11. Fabulous Sanata selfie image, this is great fun! No sign of errant snow blobs, the embellishment opportunity philosophy provided the perfect save there!

  17. Such a fun and pretty card for your GD spot at the Christmas Kickstart Challenge Bonnie and the wonky stitches edged mat goes perfectly, and love the red tartan background and the fun die cut sentiment, and of course those super snowflakes. You know what they say 'there are no mistakes just happy accidents'. x

    The tilted panel and the way you placed the sentiment, Ho Ho Ho, give the card a whimsical and fun feeling! I need something like those snow sequins to cover up my age spots! ;-)
