Soft Christmas Card

 


Christmas Card Throwdown-Color Challenge-Grey, Rose Gold, White 


CHNC-No Patterned Paper

Sparkles Christmas-Clean & Simple

This was a fun one to do and I actually combined The Christmas Card Throwdown sketch from last week and the colours for this week. I tried for rose gold but it just looks like pink. I rarely use patterned paper so the grey piece was created using my cuddlebug and an embossing folder. You just put the piece of paper between the folder and run it through the cuddlebug..voila! I have tons of paper pieces lying around so I used this glitter pink that has gold flecks in it for a background look. The star is a sticker as well as the border and the edging which I just pieced all together. I added the saying on the pink piece as the finale. I think this is simple enough. 

Enjoy the week ahead!

  2. Hi, Birgit!

    This is a handsome card indeed, dear friend, and let me be the first to wish you a merry Christmas 2021 and happy new year 2022! :) I appreciate the fact that this card is simple and uncluttered, tasteful and understated, with muted colors taking the place of the usual bright red and green, and that there are no whimsical santas or snowmen on it.

    I'm so glad you received the email I sent you today. Now we both have reason to smile and feel happy. You're the best, BB. Thank you again for your thoughtfulness, dear friend, and have a wonderful week!
