A challenge card

I’m a little embaressed to come back and blog after all this time, but I do have a good reason to be here!

One of my favourite bloggers, Nicole Derendorf, has started a weekly challenge called Festive Fridays. The idea is to create a festive card each week. Now, the first two weeks the challenge was to create Valentine’s projects but this week it was to make a Christmas card. In January! How cool to get such a good head start on Christmas for next year.

The idea is to check out the creations from the design team, use one (or more!) for inspiration and get creating. For my card, I took inspiration from Sarah Cameron’s card. I copied her layout (but flipped it), the use of a white embossed background and the sentiment banner.

I’ve used a stamp set that I purchased a while ago and had not yet used  – I dig you. This card also features both red and silver glimmer paper, the square lattice embossing folder and the scallop square die. I think it’s a super fun card for a kid at christmas time. What do you think?

  3. Oh, that is such a cute Christmas card! I have that set but it is yet to see ink :( I think I will ‘dig it up’ (lol) and have a play this weekend.

    I love that you used a non-traditional stamp to create this super cute Christmas card! Loving that cute little hat as well. Thanks for sharing.
