ABC Christmas are being sponsored by StampFairy, and because I'm one of the Stamp Fairy DT, I've been allowed to join in the fun with the ABC Christmas girls.
Ok, I admit that although after December, I did fancy a break from making cards with penguins and snowflakes (I can hear all you dedicated Xmas card crafters gasp in disbelief!) but I'm recovered now, and back with a vengeance. So much so, that I've dug out my Christmas stash box that I'd put in the cupboard, and not even put it away again (well that was after a bit of a ticking off by Samantha from ABC Christmas Challenge who thought it was a crime to hide all my Xmas stash away during the year !!!)
I'm reformed now, honest Samantha! And to pay my penance, I've got a special Christmassy freebie to give away today, created especially for my GDT spot with the ABC girls (see below).
Anyway, here's my sample card for this fortnight's challenge, which is 'for someone you Love', combined with a colour theme of Green, Red & Silver (how wonderfully Christmassy is that !!!).
Card Recipe:
- Image - Santa's World from Stamp Fairy
- Sentiment - Freebie (below, with some others I've done recently but not yet shared)
- Papers - Summertime Designs
- Colouring mediums - Promarkers and Dovecraft Shimmer chalks for shaddow.
- Nesties - Lacey circle nesties
- Cherry Blossom, 10mm & 15mm roses - Wild Orchid Crafts
- Red flat backed pearls - The Works
- From my stash - Fluffy Stuff for the hat, cuffs and snow, silver confetti, glitter
Freebie:
Finally, as promised above, here is my Christmas Sentiment freebie that I've used above. You're free to download it if you like it; click on the image for a larger version, then right click and 'save picture as' to save to your own computer.
