Christmas Goodies

Hi and welcome!  Our sketch hostess at Freshly Made Sketches this week is Amy O'Neill and she has a fabulous sketch for us.  I have to admit to being a bit over making Christmas cards and I haven't even given a thought to posting any yet!

But still, I made another Christmas card - primarily because a big Spellbinders order from Black Friday arrived and I wanted to play.


I die-cut all the elements from white cardstock and blended ink onto the pieces in various colours.  Once finished I found a pre-foiled sentiment panel and figured that I would arrange all the elements around the sentiment.  Once it was all arranged and glued down, I dry-embossed a background panel using more NBUS and adhered that to a white card base.

I finsihed with the sentiment panel and topped everything off with some clear sparkle pen.


Thanks so much for visiting.  Please check out the fabulous cards made by the rest of the design team.


Products used:

Ink:  Crimson, Velvet, Rhodolite, Bamboo, Olive, Volcano Lake, Lagoon, Limestone, Fresh Lemon, Honey Drizzle (Altenew)
Cardstock:  White, Summer Splash (MFT)
Dies:  Christmas Wonder (Spellbinders) Holiday Florals Hot Foil (Spellbinders)
Accessories:  Holiday Greenery EF (Spellbinders), Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle Pen, Navy Hot Foil

Cheers
Karren

Karren, we should start an annual Facetime - sounds like we could both use it to make our spirits bright-er.
I love all the Christmas-y bits you've added to Amy's Sketch in all my favorite colors of the season!
