Happy Hybrid Holidays! I have tried to participate in as many Jingle Belles challenges as possible this year; if there were a challenge blog that alternately required Easter, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, and Halloween, I'd be set :) Lauren & Stef's JB challenge this week is sponsored by Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More! The challenge: create a card incorporating at least one digital stamp or element in your card design.
I knew exactly what I wanted to do; last December I had printed out a digi image from Fred She Said. I have a plastic basket that has odds and ends, embellies, scraps of wrapping paper, etc. (all Christmas-themed.) Every week I pull out that basket to create my weekly Jingle Belles challenge card. This digi image came from that basket; it was an extra I printed when I made this gift card holder. I chose to use BasicGrey "wassail" papers, then I chose copic marker colors to coordinate. I wanted to put the ornament on a tree, and I used my Cricut to cut the tree and it's shadow layer.
The background paper as a subtle tiny bubbles pattern (click on picture to see better), so I embossed the tree with my "Tiny Bubbles" embossing folder. I added some paper piercing as a subtle border and some ribbon at the bottom.
Thanks for stopping by :)
Supplies:
Cricut Cartridge: Winter Frolic cut @ 5"
paper: BasicGrey Wassail
embossing folder: Cuttlebug Tiny Bubbles
digi image: Fred She Said
ribbon: Close to my Heart
