Hi everyone. I'm popping in with another Christmas card. My card was inspired by several projects that were created for the recent Nordic Wood release by Catherine Pooler Designs.
I blended CP inks onto a panel of Tombow Bristol cardstock and then used the MFT Snowfall die and a SSS stitched rectangle die to die cut my panel. The image and sentiment are from 2 different Winnie & Walter sets, designed by Evelin T Designs. I used the same CP inks (It's a boy and Royal Treatment) and a Zig blender brush to colour in my image. For the penguin's body, I used a grey ColourTint pencil with the blender brush. To finish off, I added 2 snowflakes that I had die cut from some NBUS silver foiled vellum (top left in the picture) by Crafter's Companion using my SSS dies.
I'm playing at:
Beccy's Month of Holiday Cards - B for Bird, Blue, (Ink) Blending
Jingle Belles - It came about a midnight clear
(use at least one see-through element)

ReplyDeleteLovely card Marianne. Hope you made it in the Top 10 of the Race (I think I finished about 16th - bit slow off the blocks!). I like the ombre background.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable little penguin! I love the background you created for her Marianne, it's so pretty. The colours blend so beautifully. Those big snowflakes finish your design perfectly. Love it!
